Translation Assistance For Inscribed Kozuka
kokyo jin replied to kokyo jin's topic in Translation Assistance
Thank you all for the excellent inputs with extended information !! Deeply appreciated. -
Would appriciate your assistance in translation of this inscribed Kozuka, plus details on maker, style and topic.

Can you assist with identification please? Also it would be appreciated if someone can write the Kanji for further research.

It is not a Bunchin. Seems like a part used by metalsmiths for decoration of tansu or other artifacts. Such items sometimes come up on the collectors market. Attached examples of such..

It looks like Lorenzo is correct about the motif. http://img01.ti-da.net/usr/bambi/P1000052.JPG Japan issued a set of stamps on this tale: http://thumbnail.image.rakuten.co.jp/@0_mall/timbre/cabinet/201102_007/751221.jpg?_ex=200x200&s=0&r=1

Just some additional menuki images... related to previous posts... Skull: I think this one qualifies as a snake.. Yet, another snake... An elephant....

I agree with you on that assumption. I see this motif a lot on woodblock prints (that I own). Cheers

I do not actually own this piece. Please visit http://www.yamabushiantiques.com/HFJ_Bones.htm

I agree on the monetary value. I was not asking for a purpose of selling. Not going to, at the moment anyway. I am interested in the added value. I'm quite sure about the authenticity. Just the crude lumps seems odd to me..
