Item Overview This is a stunning, handcrafted Japanese Obidome (kimono sash clip) featuring a highly detailed carving of a Tsubaki (Camellia) flower. In Japanese culture, the camellia is a revered symbol of enduring beauty, perfection, and deep admiration. This piece showcases masterful woodcarving techniques, boasting a rich, glossy finish that beautifully highlights the natural grain of the wood. It comes complete with its original artist-signed wooden box (Tomobako), with "Obidome" elegantly brushed on the lid and "Tsubaki" inscribed on the inside. An engraved signature on the back of the carving further confirms its authenticity as a fine artisan work. This is a highly collectible piece of wearable art, ideal for Kimono enthusiasts and investors in traditional Japanese crafts (Kogei). Condition Details Excellent vintage condition. The wood is beautifully preserved, retaining a deep, radiant luster with no major chips or scratches. It has been carefully stored in a smoke-free, climate-controlled environment. Please examine the provided images closely to fully appreciate the intricate details and the excellent condition of the piece.
