About the Item

This is a wooden signboard that was used during the Taisho period. Years of use and aging have given it a beautiful abstract appearance. You can hang it on the wall and enjoy it like a painting. A work that is unique to Japan. This culture has fallen into disuse over time, and very few remain today. It is extremely rare to find a work with such a wonderful atmosphere, making it an extremely valuable piece. Weight :11kg
