Vintage Japanese Miniature Tabletop Loom (卓上織器) – Kiriyama Brand – With Accessories & Box - Brass, Steel, Wood - Kiriyama (桐山) - Japan - Shōwa period (1926-1989)

This is a rare vintage Japanese tabletop weaving tool set (卓上織器), produced by Kiriyama (桐山), Tokyo/Osaka.

The set includes: - Wooden loom with clamp for table fixation. - Shuttle with original thread. - Metal weaving hook. - Adjustable weaving arm with pen-holder-like attachment for thread handling. - Original storage box with traditional Japanese patterned paper cover. - Handwritten Japanese inscription/poem on old paper, signed 佐々木信綱 (Sasaki Nobutsuna, 1872–1963, noted Japanese poet and scholar), which makes this piece especially interesting from a cultural perspective. Details: - Maker’s mark: 桐山 (Kiriyama), with label showing 東京・大阪 (Tokyo/Osaka). - Dimensions: approx. 20 cm (loom length), shuttle ca. 10 cm. Condition: Vintage, with signs of use and age-related wear. Metal parts show some patina, the paper note has wear and staining consistent with age. Overall well-preserved and complete, which is rare for such sets. A highly collectible item for those interested in Japanese handicrafts, traditional weaving, or rare educational tools. The presence of the poetic inscription adds a unique layer of historical and cultural value.
