AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Item Description
This is a Japanese hanging garden lantern (tsuri-dōrō) in cast metal with a green-grey patina. The pagoda-style roof carries a finely woven basketry texture. Four flared finials extend from the corners, and a looped hanging handle sits on the central top knob. The tapered body has openwork panels with pine, bamboo and plum blossom, the classic "three friends of winter" (shōchikubai) motif. At least one panel is hinged, so the lantern can be opened to hold a light source. The roof has small vent openings, and the base is pierced with a coin-shaped (cash-coin) design. Its sculptural silhouette and layered patina make it suitable for a garden, veranda or tea-house setting, or as an interior decorative piece.

The item will be carefully packaged and shipped by Japan Post or DHL, depending on the situation.
Due to the changes to the EU tax-free (VAT) system, Japan Post has become unable to ship certain goods valued at €150 or less to an increasing number of European countries. Depending on the destination and circumstances, the shipping method may therefore be changed from Japan Post to DHL.

Seller's Story
A Japanese living in Japan, I appreciate traditional and modern art.
I specialize in selecting artworks that reflect quiet strength, refined beauty, and timeless craftsmanship of Japanese culture. My collection focuses on pieces that carry a story—whether traditional ukiyo‑e prints, contemporary works inspired by wabi‑sabi aesthetics, or handcrafted items created by regional artisans.
I take pride in offering works that are both visually compelling and culturally meaningful. Every item is carefully curated for authenticity, condition, and artistic value, ensuring that bidders can participate with confidence.
My goal is to connect international collectors with the richness of Japanese artistry—pieces that bring harmony, character, and a touch of Japan’s spirit into your home.
I look forward to sharing these works with you and hope they inspire the same appreciation and joy they bring to me.
