Description from the seller
Rising Sun Order VIII Class - Antique Meiji Era Japanese Imperial Army Complete Set
Splendid and excellent original collectible piece from the Japanese Empire. This is the Order of the Rising Sun, VIII Class (勲八等白色桐葉章 / Kun-hachitō Hakushoku Tōyashō), historically instituted during the Meiji era.
A complete set of great value and rarity, ideal for enriching an international militaria collection or high-end Asian curio collection
• 100% authenticity guaranteed: A genuine piece of Japanese military history, not a modern reproduction.
• Rarity of the set: Extremely difficult to find on the market a specimen that preserves both the delicate lapel pin and the original lacquered box intact.
• Original medal: Fully silver, featuring the traditional imperial emblem of the Paulownia leaf (Kiri). It shows a magnificent natural patina of age that attests to its authenticity.
• Original ribbon: In the classic institutional white and red colors, in excellent condition with only light and charming signs of time.
• Lapel badge (Rosetta): Original pin included, an accessory that is almost always missing and which makes this lot exceptionally complete.
• Original presentation box: Premium wooden case lacquered in traditional black Japanese Urushi lacquer, embellished on the lid with raised Kanji characters in silver color stamped in a classic style.
