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.

From our collection of Japanese ceramics from the Meiji-era, this finely painted Satsuma box, standing on three feet and depicting the famous Nikko Shrine of Tochigi Prefecture.
The Temple is set in a misty mountainous forest and small figures can be seen making their pilgrimage to the location which still stands today and is one of 25 Unesco Heritage Sites found across Japan.
Around the outside of the box, a long procession of Warriors, Signalmen and Noble men make their way to the Temple.
On the inside of the cover, a pretty Scroll is attached to a blossoming Cherry Blossom tree and inside the main body of the box a group of young ladies are seated in a pavilion playing musical instruments.
Signed to the underside and offered in fine condition as shown in the photographs. Please feel free to contact us for further information or to arrange a viewing.
