Gary Posted July 22, 2021 Report Posted July 22, 2021 Any ideas on who the artist is for these Menuki? Thanks Gary Quote
Soshin Posted July 23, 2021 Report Posted July 23, 2021 Hello Gary, From the one photo I really cannot tell. Can you post a photo of the backside of the menuki? 1 Quote
Gary Posted July 24, 2021 Author Report Posted July 24, 2021 I will next time I go to my safe deposit box where they are. I think they are Yoshioka. Quote
kyushukairu Posted July 25, 2021 Report Posted July 25, 2021 Yoshioka made formal fittings for the court (shakudo with nanako and gold), which these menuki are not. The style is more in keeping with machibori (street carvers). And whilst nothing stands out as a particular kantei point, if I had to guess I would probably suggest the Nara school Quote
