A MATCHED PAIR OF GOLD-INLAID BRONZE 'BUDDHIST TEMPLE BELL' KOGO (INCENSE CONTAINERS), ONE BY MIYABE ATSUYOSHIOne by Miyabe Atsuyoshi, signed IkkodoJapan, late 19th century, Meiji period (1868-1912)Each cast in the form of a bell, the dark-brown patinated bronze decorated in gold, silver, and copper takazogan to depict a fierce three-clawed dragon with neatly incised scales, its sinuous body partly obscured by the surrounding swirling clouds and crashing waves, a lotus motif on either side, with a band of formal lappet ornament inlaid in gold around the base, the domed lid with gold lappets and raised bosses imitating those on a real bell, surmounted by a handle in the form of a double-dragon head. One bell is signed to the base IKKODO – the art name of Miyabe Atsuyoshi.HEIGHT 12.8 cm (each)WEIGHT 757.6 g and 639.2 gCondition: Excellent condition with minor wear.During the Meiji era, Japanese metalworkers began to manufacture ornaments in the form of Buddhist temple bells. Reflecting increasingly sophisticated Western interest in native traditions and beliefs, such pieces were mostly intended not for liturgical use in Japan but as ornaments for American and European drawing rooms. Even so, their makers made an effort to give them the appearance of miniaturized versions of the real thing, sometimes as with this particularly high-quality lot adding fanciful surface motifs that appealed to foreign taste for exotic myth and legend.Miyabe Atsuyoshi, art name Ikkodo, is recorded in Wakayama Takeshi, Kinko Jiten (Dictionary of Metalworkers), Tokyo, Token Shunju Shinbunsha, 1999, p. 1141, as being a maker of sword fittings and a pupil of Shinoyama Tokuoki (1813-1891), active in Kyoto during the late Edo period and early Meiji era.Although the present boxes and covers were not conceived as a pair, they match perfectly and it can be seen as a great (and unlikely) accomplishment by the collector to have brought the two together.Auction comparison:Compare a closely related single kogo (incense container) with Nogawa mark, sold at Christie's, Masterful Exuberance, Artistic Craftsmanship of Imperial Japan, 18 May 2012, London, lot 23 (sold for 11,875 GBP).13% VAT will be added to the hammer price additional to the buyer's premium – only for buyers within the EU.

SUKENOBU: A MASTERFUL WOOD OKIMONO OF A TOAD AND SNAKEBy Sukenobu, signed Sukenobu (Ryosho)Japan, Takayama, Hida province, late 19th century, Meiji period (1868-1912) Intricately and realistically carved as a toad attempting to fend off a snake which has encircled it threateningly, one of the toad's eyes squinting under the pressure of the snake's tail wrapped around its head, the serpent with the mouth wide open and split tongue stretched out, the scales neatly rendered, the toad detailed with masterful ukibori, both animals' eyes double-inlaid with dark and translucent horn, the toad's underbelly signed SUKENOBU within a rectangular reserve.LENGTH 17 cmCondition: Good condition with minor wear, few minor age cracks, occasional light scratches. Some repairs including one to the neck of the snake near the head. With an associated black and gold-lacquered wood stand supported on four feet and decorated with butterflies as well as floral and foliate designs, dating from the same period.The present okimono alludes to the story of Jiraiya (lit. 'Young Thunder'), the toad-riding protagonist of the Japanese folk tale Katakiuchi Kidan Jiraiya Monogatari. The tale was originally a Yomihon that was published in 1806-1807 and was adapted into a serialized novel that was written by different authors and published in 43 installments from 1839 to 1868; one of its illustrators was woodblock artist Kunisada. Jiraiya was a ninja who used shape-shifting magic to transform into a giant toad. His arch nemesis is Yasagoro, a master of serpent magic.Auction comparison: Compare a closely related wood okimono signed Sukekazu, also dated Meiji period, late 19th century, 14.5 cm wide, at Christie's, 5 December 2017, London, lot 20 (sold for 10,625 GBP).

His face with an intense expression marked by his shakudo-inlaid gilt-ringed eyes, furrowed brows, and spiky beard. His robes, hair and beard are blowing as if he is standing in the midst of a great storm. Mounted on a stepped square base.HEIGHT 43 cm (excl. stand) and 46 cm (incl. stand) WEIGHT 11.6 kg Condition: Very good condition with minor wear.The rock crystal sphere held by Ryujin represents the sacred jewel Yasakani no Nagatami, one of the Three Sacred Treasures, the imperial regalia of Japan. They represent the three primary virtues: valor (the sword), wisdom (the mirror), and benevolence (the jewel). This depiction of the Dragon King of the Sea presenting the jewel appears in woodblock prints of the 19th century as well as two celebrated sculptural groups (see Literature comparison).Literature comparison: Compare a bronze group in the Khalili collection depicting the sea-god Haneakarutama (essentially, the purely Japanese equivalent of Ryujin) presenting the jewel to Susanoo, illustrated in Meiji no Takara: Treasures of Imperial Japan - The Nasser D.

A FINE AND RARE GOLD LACQUER SUZURIBAKO DEPICTING A DRAGON, TIGERS, AND A LEOPARD (FEMALE TIGER)Japan, 18th century, Edo period (1615-1868)Of rectangular form, bearing a gold nashiji ground, the overhanging cover with canted gold fundame edges, finely decorated in predominantly gold as well as silver and black takamaki-e and kirigane with a central lobed panel enclosing a fierce dragon clutching a tama pearl and writhing around craggy rockwork amid crashing waves, its scales neatly picked out in matte gold and silver lacquer while the pearl, horns, eyes, spikes, and flames are lacquered a lustrous gold, all against a sparser nashiji on roiro ground, the panel surrounded by thick reishi clouds with gold kirigane flakes.The interior of the cover similarly decorated to depict a wildly roaring tiger seated on a rocky outcrop beside a mother tiger resembling a leopard and its young, the ground and swirling waves with nashiji and continuing onto the sides. The baseboard fitted with a rectangular tray similarly decorated with a craggy rock, blossoming plum, and bamboo leaves, as well as a panel holding the signed suzuri (inkstone) and metal suiteki (waterdropper) incised with flowers. Note the skillful use of different kinds of nashiji and shades of gold, adding a particularly rich quality to this fine lacquer suzuribako.SIZE 4 x 20.8 x 19.1 cmCondition: Very good condition with minor wear, few light surface scratches.Provenance: Dutch collection.With a wood storage box.The dragon and tiger are symbols of the two opposing and yet complimentary forces of yin and yang. The dragon, a mythical animal thought to reign over the heavens, stands for yang. The tiger, respected in ancient China as the mightiest of the wild beasts, stands for yin. They are often paired together in painting compositions but appear substantially less often in suzuribakos. Furthermore, the female tiger here is represented with spotted fur resembling a leopard. As the leopard is not native to Japan, artists had only seen the leopard's fur on occasion and had deduced it must belong to a female tiger.

The separately cast trumpet mouth with a galleried rim inlaid in silver wire with a geometric and a foliate band, the base of the mouth with silver-inlaid leafy floral blossoms, the interior with katakiri and kebori as well as gold and copper takazogan to depict a ho-o bird beside a leafy branch and a kirin amid swirling clouds, the exterior similarly decorated with birds and butterflies amid leafy branches and peony. The separately cast, elaborately openworked, tiered stand is intricately decorated with gold and silver inlay, both flat and in high relief, as well as katakiri and kebori, depicting beast masks, birds in flight, blooming chrysanthemums, leafy bamboo, and implements for the shell-matching game (kai-awase), and further with geometric and foliate designs. HEIGHT 59 cm WEIGHT 13.9 kgCondition: Excellent condition with minor wear. Provenance: British collection. Kakuha Kanzaemon I, real name Kakuha Zenjiro, was a member of a lineage of metalworkers from Toyama. In 1869, he started a branch office in the port of Yokohama for the export trade of bronze ware and also acted as a retailer for foreign clients in Japan. Based on Chinese bronze forms but with exaggeratedly wide rims, usubata were first cast in Japan in the seventeenth century for formal flower arrangements; then, during the early Meiji era, elaborate multi-part usubata became one of the favored forms of bronze destined for international exhibitions and the global export market. Museum comparison:The artist Tamagawa Mitsukiyo appears to be rare, his output focused on producing exceptionally fine usubata.

A MASSIVE BRONZE KORO AND COVER WITH TOKUGAWA MONJapan, 19th century, late Edo period (1615-1868)The sides of the vessel are finely worked in relief with two panels framed by ferocious dragons amid clouds, depicting to one side Lady Rokujo at the Nonomiya Shrine, with long hair and dressed in a long flowing court dress, standing in the sacred bamboo enclosure amid jars filled with water and reading a love-letter from Prince Hikaru Genji. The other panel depicts her as a vengeful spirit wearing a mask of Hannya, and clutching her long, finely incised hair with one hand.The ovoid vessel supported on a revolving foot cast with crashing waves above a compressed globular 'basketweave' segment raised on four elegantly curved legs on a tiered circular base. The pierced cover surmounted by a screeching eagle with fierce expression and outstretched wings. The vessel is flanked by two handles in the form of sinuous dragons with neatly incised scales and mouths wide open, with a third dragon writhing around the foot. The neck is cast to either side with the Tokugawa clan mon (aoi mon), while the cover and base are decorated with crests of six radiating aoi leaves. The base with a cho mon (butterfly crest).With a finely carved wood stand supported on four elegantly curved legs with scroll-form feet above an apron carved with clouds and foliage surmounted by a tiered square platform carved with decorative bands.HEIGHT 132 cm (censer only), HEIGHT (total) 180 cmWEIGHT 28 kg (excl. stand)Condition: Good overall condition with some wear, tiny nicks, light scratches, some repairs with traces of soldering, minor losses.Provenance: Belgian private collection.Lady Rokujo is a character in The Tale of Genji (Genji Monogatari). She is a mistress of the novel's protagonist, Hikaru Genji, with whom she becomes infatuated and jealous of his other lovers. Her jealousy subconsciously causes her ikiryo (wandering spirit) to become a Shiryo (also known as a Yurei) that attacks and murders multiple other mistresses and wives of Genji.The Tokugawa's clan symbol, known in Japanese as a mon, the "triple hollyhock" (although commonly, but mistakenly identified as "hollyhock", the aoi actually belongs to the birthwort family and translates as "wild ginger"—Asarum), has been a readily recognized icon in Japan, symbolizing in equal parts the Tokugawa clan and the last shogunate.The cho (butterfly) mon traditionally represents the Taira Clan, who prospered during the Heian era (AD 700 ~ 1200). They are recognized as the first to use this mon, and nearly all of the modern families who claim it are descendants of the Taira clan.Auction comparison: Compare a related bronze koro with eagle finial, dated to the late 19th century, measuring 149.8 cm, sold at Bonhams, Fine Japanese and Korean Art, 12 September 2012, New York, lot 3373 (sold for 15,000 USD).
