Back by Popular Japan


Just arrived from the land of the rising sun are these spectacular mid-century Japanese bronzes... all with their original presentation boxes.  The black vase with the peek-a-boo hole is particularly modernist in shape and the copper colored bronze vase has a hot pink splatter. The ikibana vase is dramatic and charming at the same time...notice the applied gold ladybug.

Artisans: Top left (9") is by Itasaka Tatsuji and the copper vase (9.5") is by Tachikawa Zentro, Ikibana (9") is by Sakaguchi Yoshio
