Shōwa-period Vintage Vacuum Flask Set, Japan

This set of vintage Japanese vacuum flasks from the Shōwa period is a classic of “Shōwa lifestyle aesthetics,” closely followed by collectors. It includes an early vacuum flask by the world-famous Tiger brand and a deep-green patterned vacuum flask with strong period character. Objects like these are not only a microcosm of Japanese post-war industrial design; their signature metallic finish and bright coatings also make them standout pieces for creating a nostalgic atmosphere.

Japanese Folk Deity Mask

陶製福神笑顏面具掛飾

一張笑得毫不含蓄的臉,反而讓人第一眼就記住它。 這件來自日本的老件陶製福神面具,以相當飽滿、誇張的方式塑造傳統福神形象。圓潤豐厚的臉型、上揚的眉眼、張嘴露齒的笑容,再配上兩側濃厚的鬢鬚與下巴黑鬚,整體充滿日本民藝特有的質樸與幽默感。 頭頂以金色帽冠搭配黑色帽帶,臉部則以暖橘色為主調,再以黑、紅、白、金等色彩描繪五官。色彩鮮明,但經過歲月之後已不再有新品般的銳利感,反而多了一層老件特有的沉著氣息。尤其有趣的是,面具兩耳位置還保留了繩穗裝飾,讓整體不只是單純的陶製人物造型,而多了一點傳統祭祀、民藝與地方文化的味道。(背面一處微微沖線)

Double-Sided Old Wooden Japanese Pharmacy Sign, “家秘一元丹” (Kahi Ichigentan)

A double-sided old wooden sign from Japan, dating from before the Shōwa era. The front is carved with the words “家秘一元丹” (Kahi Ichigentan), one of the phrases used on signs by folk pharmacies of the time selling secret-formula medicines. “Ichigentan” refers to an affordable household remedy with wide-ranging effects, carrying the idea that “one dose cures a hundred ills”; “kahi” (family secret) stresses that the formula was handed down within the shop's family, making it distinctive and highly trusted. The back is carved “呉服大賣物類”, meaning the sale of fabrics, kimono and related goods. This vividly reflects the character of Japanese popular commercial culture from the late Edo period through the Taishō and early Shōwa periods, when a single shop often combined several trades, selling both medicines and textiles and sundries to meet the everyday needs of ordinary people and adapt to economic change. This multi-trade model not only shows the flexibility of local merchants but also created streetscapes rich in cultural memory. (With an iron hanging hook; can be wall-mounted or hung for display as is.)

Post-war Japanese Tinplate Motorcycle Rider Toy

This is a Japanese post-war tin plate toy to set seasoned collectors' hearts racing. From the late 1940s to the 1950s, Japan dominated the global toy market with its superb tinplate printing and fabrication techniques, and this motorcycle rider epitomizes that glorious “factory of the world” era. Objects of this kind marked “Made in Occupied Japan” or bearing early post-war export marks remain consistently in demand at international auctions. Attracts a magnet; shows traces of past storage; natural rust spots (a patina reflecting genuine age).

Beni Fuji Tenugui Long Towel (Classic Igeta Pattern), Japan

This Japanese “Beni Fuji” tenugui long towel is a precious deadstock item reflecting traditional Japanese textile craft and the everyday aesthetics of ordinary people. In Japanese culture, the tenugui is not only a practical everyday towel but also a cultural medium expressing the sense of the season, festive blessings or occupational identity. This piece, bearing the classic igeta (well-frame) pattern, is full of rich, rustic Japanese charm. Deadstock, with its packaging intact. (Note: owing to long storage, the fabric may show slight traces of age, which only add to its authentic vintage character.)

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.

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.

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.
