Product Code: KPOK96
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.

This charming miniature Silver Cockatoo is from our collection of fine Japanese Meiji-era metalworks. The Okimono doubles as a Koro as there is a removable panel on the birds back.
The details are intricately picked out in Gold, Bronze and Shakudo.
The bird stands on a luxurious lacquer stand. The bird measures 15cm in length from the top of its crest to its tail feathers.
Condition is very good. Please feel free to contact us for further information.
