apanese Kyo-yaki Style Tea Bowl with Heian Court Figures & Wooden Box

Kyo-yaki Signed Tea Bowl, Heian Court Figures, Gold-Decorated Cherry Blossom Motif, with Original Wooden Storage Box

Kyoto has a long history of ceramic culture, and Kyo-yaki (Kyoto ware) is renowned for its rich decorative expression, diverse painted subjects and refined tea ceremony wares. Unlike pottery that emphasizes clay texture and natural kiln effects, many Kyo-yaki pieces place particular importance on the painting art of the vessel's surface, frequently incorporating figures, landscapes, birds and flowers, seasonal scenery and classical literary themes into ceramic work. This tea bowl conveys a strong sense of Kyoto's decorative ceramic art. The bowl has an overall form that flares slightly outward, with a wide mouth rim, a rounded body, and a base drawn in to a footring. The proportions are natural, combining the practical structure of a tea bowl with visual appeal.

African-Style Beaded Wooden Figure

Vintage African Style｜Traditional Hand-Beaded Carved Wood Figure・Ethnic Art Display Piece

The figure is carved from dark wood in an upright stance with a slender build. The carving does not aim for the precise bodily proportions of Western realist sculpture; instead, through an elongated body, simplified limbs, an enlarged head and strongly defined facial contours, it achieves a form imbued with the feel of primitive art and ethnic carving. The face is especially distinctive. A long, narrow nose bridge, slightly closed eyes and a protruding, somewhat abstract mouth, together with the deep brown tone of the wood, give the whole face a serene and faintly mysterious expression. What truly gives the piece its strong visual impact, however, is the abundant colored beadwork on the figure. Red, white, blue, green, yellow, black, orange and other colors are arranged as tiny beads into geometric totemic patterns. A large ring-shaped ornament forms around the head, while the chest bears rectangular beadwork and multiple tiers of hanging bead strands. The vivid beadwork creates a very beautiful contrast with the dark brown wood carving.

Castagna Artisan-Made Owl Figure, Italy

This Italian Castagna owl figure is a classic work from a famous Italian sculpture workshop of the 1980s. A Western vintage piece of very high craftsmanship, its realistic style and warm texture resonate beautifully with the “view of nature” and “wood tones” of Japanese-style interiors. Across world cultures the owl symbolizes “wisdom” and “protection,” and in Japan its name, fukurō, also carries the auspicious pun “no hardship” (不苦労); it is a fine piece combining collectability and meaning.

1952 Kobe Vintage STERLING SILVER Engraved Jewelry Cabinet

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.
