A Shoami School iron tsuba with silver detailing, sukashi-style, with gilt koi leaping through waves and spume. In Japanese symbolism, the carp (koi) is portrayed swimming upwards, cresting over foamy waters or against the currents of a waterfall.

An Edo era Kara-mono cloisonné tray enclosed in an antique wooden box. This was made in China for the Japanese market, and is of the Kara-mono style of cloisonné.

19th century Asakusa school staghorn netsuke in manju shape with openwork carving of samurai mon (feudal lords crests) - 4 on one side and 2 on the other among leaves and stylized clouds. The one representing a triangle inside a triangle is that of the Hojo family: I have not been able to identify the others. Superb design and excellent quality sharp carving, beautiful warm patina, darker porous areas as is usual with staghorn. Clever and charming piece. Diameter 1 1/2 inches.
