A Meiji period Japanese natural paper, bamboo and iron hanging lantern in its original wood box. It consists of the ebonized hand-cut and bentwood hanger which has iron fittings with handcut nails. It opens around a pinion for mounting. The 8-3/4" diameter lantern is formed from handmade paper fiber and it has a bentwood collar and base with iron fittings. The top fitting has a handle for hanging and the bottom has fittings for hanging depending on the location. The loop is for securing to the hanger, and the interior of the base has a chain also for hanging and a spike for securing a candle. It has the circled feathers Mon painted in black on the paper as well as Japanese letters. The 12" x 5-3/4" box stands 11-1/4" high and it is darkly stained and also has the mon (family symbol) on the front. The lid has a carved carapace, and it is assembled with handmade finishing nails as well. The work and carving are simple and beautiful, and this lantern is a definite prize, especially since it has survived in such good condition and it has the original fittings and box (which has a taped business card with a note in Japanese). This lamp is in excellent original condition with the expected signs of age, including slight rubbing on the box edges, some minor splits to the old paper and some minor losses or chipping to the Japanned finish on the hanger. All

A truly unusual and well-made three piece cruet set in high grade Japanese silver. Dating to the late 19th-early 20th century, this cruet has the 2-1/2" high pepper shaker, the 1-1/4" high open salt dish and the 2-1/4" high lidded mustard pot with handle. What makes this set exceptional is the presence of very high relief applied spiders being chased by lizards. The mouths are open on the lizards and the detail is stunning; each piece is on three insect-like legs. Each piece has Japanese silver marks, and the three pieces are typical of a European table service and this set may have been made for that market. The set weighs a total of 115.9 grams, and there is no liner present in the salt dish. This set is in excellent condition with no dents, bends, corrosion, losses, damage or repairs other than some indenting to two feet on each of the ineriors of the mustard and salt pieces. All
items are thoroughly and conservatively graded and all condition issues are noted; all items are vintage or antique and may have slight signs of gentle use. Surface tracked shipping to the U.S. starts at $22 (other spots may vary) - insured is higher, and mandatory on items over $95 if paid with a credit card.
