Japanese Carved and Lacquered Wooden Noh Mask

This Japanese carved and lacquered wooden Noh mask depicts a traditional female character, with a soft, dignified and slightly mysterious face. The face is finished in ivory-white to pale cream tones, the brows and eyes outlined with fine black lines, and vermilion added to the eyelids and lips, giving the understated base a subtle layering. The hairline is painted in black, with red cord ties at either side; the proportions are simple yet highly recognizable as traditional Japanese theatrical art. The greatest charm of a Noh mask often lies not in an exaggerated expression but in “one face that shows different emotions as the angle and light change.” (There is a small chip on the back.) Viewed from the front it may seem calm and faintly smiling; seen slightly from below it may show more joy; viewed from above it may appear composed or even tinged with sorrow. This ambiguous, ever-changing expression is one of the most representative artistic features of Japanese Noh masks.

Vintage Japanese | Crab-Shaped Carved Wooden Tray | Ashtray, Large Crab Carving

This vintage Japanese crab-shaped carved wooden tray is a woodcraft piece with a very distinctive form and a strong hand-carved feel. The subject is a crab; the central shell, claws, legs and body outline are all carved directly from the wood. A recess is kept in the center for holding things, so it can be used as an ashtray, for small items, as a tea-setting utensil or as a tabletop ornament, making it not just a wood carving for viewing but also quite practical. The surface retains natural wood tones of alternating dark brown and reddish brown, with clear grain; together with the shadows and sheen created by the carving, the crab looks more three-dimensional. The legs and claws extend outward with strong visual tension, and it readily becomes a focal point on a table. Compared with ordinary geometric wooden ashtrays or trays, the greatest feature of this piece is that “the sculpture itself is the vessel.” It can be admired as wood carving and also put to real use, combining playfulness, folk-craft character and collectible value.

Japanese Sōma Ware Large Double-Gourd Vase with Crackled Celadon Glaze and Horse Painting (Koma-e)

This large gourd-shaped vase in the Sōma ware style has a very distinctive form. The body takes the shape of a double gourd, with two stacked spheres, the upper smaller and the lower full, giving round, steady proportions that combine a traditional auspicious form with the rustic beauty of Japanese pottery. It has a soft celadon-green glaze with extensive natural crackle, giving a warm, tranquil look rich in the feeling of age. The large lower body is painted with koma-e, that is, horse motifs, showing a galloping horse and figure brushwork in a plain, vigorous style that contrasts well with the celadon glaze. Both the gourd and the horse carry clear auspicious meanings in Eastern culture. The gourd symbolizes fortune and prosperity, receiving blessings and completeness; the horse is often seen as a symbol of vitality, progress, success and career development. The combination gives this piece value as collectible pottery and also makes it well suited as an auspicious display in a home or commercial space.

Large African Tribal Wood Carving of a Figure | Tall Black Standing Figure

This large African tribal wood carving of a figure, with its elongated human form, deep black wooden surface and highly recognizable tribal style, is an exotic art piece well suited to serve as the visual centerpiece of a space. The figure stands upright, its body lean and its limbs deliberately elongated, the face simple in outline yet strongly sculptural. Slender decorative lines can be seen on the head and beside the ears, and a wrapped garment texture is carved at the waist, so that within its minimal silhouette the piece still retains features of traditional dress and of the figure. The surface is predominantly deep black, visually calm and powerful, and blends easily into modern interiors. Compared with richly colored ethnic crafts, this piece leans more toward a “sculptural art object,” so it suits not only collectors who love other cultures but also modern homes, art spaces, guesthouses and commercial interiors.

Shōwa-Period Japanese | European-Style Classical Wooden Corner Display Cabinet

This Shōwa-period Japanese wooden corner display cabinet is a piece of classical furniture that combines storage, display and decoration. It has a dark brown wooden structure, with a glass-fronted display cabinet above and an enclosed two-door storage cupboard below, joined in the middle by a shaped wooden support, forming a very recognizable two-tier structure. Its greatest feature is the corner design. Compared with an ordinary upright cabinet, this type of furniture fits into a corner, saving space and turning an easily overlooked corner into a display focal point.

Japanese Vintage European-Style Classical Pedestal Round Table on Three Legs

This Japanese vintage round table in classical European style uses a quite typical central-pedestal, three-legged structure. Its form carries a strong classical European furniture feeling while retaining the refined proportions and sober wood tones common in old Japanese furniture. The top is a large circle, about 74.2 cm in diameter, not too bulky yet large enough for actual use. A single central column supports it, extending down to three curved legs to form a stable and decorative structure. As the photos show, the legs spread elegantly outward with the curves common in classical furniture, while the central column is worked with stepped profiles and turned lines, making the piece not merely functional furniture but old woodwork with sculptural beauty. Such pedestal round tables were very common in Japanese Western-style houses, Shōwa-period Western furniture interiors, old homes and retro cafés, and are a very characterful type of wayō setchū (Japanese-Western fusion) furniture.

Shōwa-Period Japanese | Hand-Lettered Craftsman's Advertising Signboard on Wooden Stand

This Shōwa-period Japanese wooden standing signboard is a commercial kodōgu (vintage Japanese object) with a strong flavor of social history. It has a wooden frame on a standing base, and the large central panel retains its early hand-lettered advertising, showing craftsmen's services in Japanese, contact information and construction-related text. Signs like this were not made for artistic display; they actually stood in neighborhoods, at builders' offices, craftsmen's workplaces or shop fronts, telling passers-by what services were offered. So its greatest charm is precisely the feeling of having truly been used. The wear on the wood, the surface color, the irregular hand lettering, the original layout and the old-style telephone number all reflect Japan's street-level commercial culture and craftsman economy of the time.

Vintage Japanese | Large Double-Sided Solid Wood Art Screen with Noh Figure and Chrysanthemums

This large Japanese solid wood art screen is a vintage Japanese piece combining furniture function, traditional cultural meaning and artistic display. It is built as a solid wooden structure standing about 135 cm high, with a very strong presence in a space. Unlike ordinary light folding screens, this piece is closer to a “large solid wood art partition / tsuitate,” a woodwork piece that can stand on its own. As the current photos show, one side takes a Noh figure as its subject. The figure wears ornate traditional costume in vermilion, ultramarine, gold and off-white covered with fine traditional Japanese patterns; the long white hair, mask-like expression and stage posture give the whole a strong atmosphere of Noh culture and dramatic tension.

Maruni Classical Armchair with Woven Floral Upholstery, Japan

This armchair was made by the long-established Japanese furniture maker Maruni (マルニ木工) and retains its original “maruni HIROSHIMA, JAPAN” maker's plate; it is a vintage piece combining Japanese woodworking quality with the aesthetics of classical European furniture. Founded in Hiroshima, Maruni is one of the most representative furniture brands in the development of modern Japanese furniture. Its work has long excelled in wood processing, curved forms and European furniture styles, so many early Maruni pieces, even after many years, remain popular with lovers of old Japanese furniture and retro interiors. This armchair has a warm dark brown wooden frame, with the back and seat upholstered in a classical woven floral fabric of golden-brown tones on a deep blue ground. A large central flower is combined with scrolling foliage and vine patterns, an ornate design with a strong classical European feel.

A small jewelry cabinet made in Kobe in 1952, crafted in STERLING SILVER.
