£POA - What does POA mean?
Product Code: KPME129
Simply put, POA stands for “Price on Application”.
With some of our pieces, we prefer not to openly publish our asking price. We absolutely welcome visitors to the website to contact us to enquire about the cost of such pieces.
We just prefer to have a conversation to allow us to explain the pricing as well as to talk in more detail about the piece in question.
It doesn’t necessarily mean that it is a super expensive piece but it may just be that there is something unique or special that we would like to be able to tell you about in more detail.
Contact us to find out more.
From our collection of antique Japanese metalware from the reign of Emperor Meiji, (1868-1912) this stylish bulbous Bronze vase depicting the Kofuku-ji Temple Pagoda, (once one of the Seven Great Temples in the city of Nara.)
The Pagoda rises up above a delicately rendered forest of trees which fade into the mist at ground level. Silver patination is used to great effect against the copper-red of the Bronze to pick out the Pagoda and a tiny flock of birds in the distance.
Offered in very good condition as shown in the images. Contact us for further images or to arrange a viewing at our North London galleries.
Pagoda
The Japanese Pagoda used to function as reliquaries or shrines. They were important in the Buddhist faith but over time have lost their practical function. They are not often seen in more modern temple compounds, but are still and iconic Japanese image. They can be made of wood or stone and range from about one metre tall with a single story to thirteen levels and 14 meters tall the largest being in Nara.
