This Japanese hand-painted porcelain commemorative plate is a collector's piece of real artistic and cultural significance. Its fine hand-painted design and quality porcelain make it ideal for display and collecting.
This ceramic mask is double-sided. One side is an elegant, finely rendered Waka-onna (young woman) mask, representing the role of a young woman in traditional Noh theatre: gentle and graceful with a serene expression, it shows the dignified softness of the classical Japanese woman. The other side is a highly charged erotic scene depicting a man and a woman in Heian-period dress making love, bold in detail yet still artistic, an extension of the Japanese shunga tradition. This is not a mass-produced piece; it is likely a handmade folk-craft wall hanging, with a thick ceramic body and full, vivid painted colour, making a strong impression both in the hand and to the eye. A hanging hole at the top allows it to be hung directly on the wall, and either side can be displayed, so it is both practical and decorative.
This music box is an elegant early Japanese art object with a strong Shōwa style, finely made and with delicately carved details. Its style reflects the homage to and absorption of European art in Japan at the time, displaying a refined artistic beauty.
This Turkish ceramic bowl is made using traditional handmade pottery techniques and fully reflects the rich history and distinctive artistic style of Turkish culture. Turkish ceramics have a long history and are known worldwide for their intricate patterns and bright colours, and this bowl is a fine expression of that art.
This is a commemorative collector's large dish on the theme of Japanese sumo culture. Fired in mellow, elegant celadon, its surface is worked in three-dimensional relief, vividly depicting several of the most representative yokozuna in the history of Japanese sumo. Around the dish can be seen the names of famous yokozuna, including Akashi Shiganosuke, Tanikaze Kajinosuke, Onogawa Kisaburō, Ōnomatsu Midorinosuke, Inazuma Raigorō, Shiranui Dakuemon and Hidenoyama Raigorō — all legendary figures of great importance in the development of sumo. More than a functional porcelain piece, it is a commemorative artwork combining Japanese sports culture, historical figures and ceramic craft; for collectors who love Japanese culture and the history of sumo, it holds considerable collecting value and conversational interest.
A small jewelry cabinet made in Kobe in 1952, crafted in STERLING SILVER. The double-door body is finely engraved with flowers and foliage, and the doors, hinges and clasps show layers of classical metalwork. Over the years the silver has naturally oxidized into varied tones and signs of use, making the delicate engraving stand out more vividly in light and shadow.
Wearing an ornate jeweled crown, draped in celestial robes and necklaces, the figure sits in the "royal ease" posture, one leg raised and the other hanging naturally, capturing the graceful, relaxed pose of Water-Moon Guanyin. The face is lowered with a calm expression, and the bronze-toned finish is naturally deep and steady — well suited to a tea room, study or quiet space.
Every piece has weathered centuries. We bring an exacting, professional approach to antique art to every handover and delivery.
We keep searching all over Japan for antiques and vintage pieces with character — ceramics, tea ceremony utensils, vases, wood carvings, furniture and Shōwa-era goods — and bring them across the sea to DASING.
Items are photographed as they are, showing color, texture, detail and actual appearance as closely as possible, so buying online comes closer to seeing them in person.
Antiques often show wear, oxidation, kiln flaws, repairs or other signs of age. We show these as fully as we can in photos and item descriptions, so you can understand each piece before deciding to buy.
