Description
Very detailed high quality menuki with the design of what is known as a “Noren”and “Sudare”. A noren is a hanging divider usually used in doorways, and a sudare is a type of screen or blind used for privacy or decoration. As one can see from the pictures, this set was very carefully made, and when considering the small size, one can respect the artist even more. Most likely a maker of the Goto School made this set, as the quality is very high and the use of gold and silver is done in their style.
Time Period
Mid – Late Edo
