 -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  - | Japanese Carved Boxwood incense box Round Kogo Meiji period
Item # 5622
Click HERE to inquire about this item
A fantastic small antique Japanese round kogo (incense box) with a low relief carved design on the entire piece depicting a grapevine with grapes. Signed on the base with a three character signature. The inner box reaches to almost the top of the cover. It would have taken a master wood craftsman to be able to have turned a single piece of wood on a lathe to create a top as tin as this one without breaking it. The entire top piece would have had to be carved ever so carefully because of the extra thin sides. If it cracked during the carving or while being turned out on the lathe it would have had to be completely remade. The attached base sits on a scrolled bottom with three raised legs. Measures two and one half inches in diameter by two and three sixteenth inches high. Excellent condition with no cracks or chips. Dates from the mid the late Meiji Period, circa 1880 to 1900. The attached single piece base sits on a scrolled bottom with three raised legs. Measures 2 and one half inches in diameter by 2 and three sixteenth inches high. Excellent condition with no cracks or chips wonderful original old glowing patina. Dates from the mid the late Meiji Period, circa 1880 to 1900.
