A Large Japanese Meiji Bronze Eagle with Bronze Tokugawa Mon Base
Located in New York, NY
An antique Japanese Meiji era bronze eagle on a perch. The eagle, with its head lowered and wings outspread, reflects the dynamic energy and alertness characteristic of these majestic birds. The detailing, likely down to the feathers and talons, showcases the skill of the Meiji era bronze artisans, known for their precision and attention to naturalistic forms. The tasseled bronze stand with gilt mounts not only provides a stable perch for the eagle but also adds a touch of elegance and ornate detailing.
Circa the early 19th century.

Great Wood Carving Lion Figurine / 1868-1920 / Rare Item
Located in Sammu-shi, Chiba
This looks like an old copperware, but it is a wood carving work.
It is glossy because it is finished with black lacquer.
It is a very delicate and beautiful sculpture.
The expression of the lion is cool.
Also, the sculpture on the tail is wonderful.
It is thought that it was carved on wood such as Japanese cypress.
The name of the engraver is also engraved.
The name "Kichitaro" is engraved.
I don't know the details of this person.
There are also small cracks and defects.
There is a loss in the lower part of his right ear and part of his tail.
And there are lacquer cracks and wood cracks.
This is an old one, so there is something like this.
Also, in the case of Japanese and Chinese lions, a ball is attached to the left hand, but this is missing.
However, it is a work that is quite impressive.
It is a rare item...
