FAQs

A Meiji period bronze tiger is a cast metal sculpture produced in Japan between 1868 and 1912, often created as an okimono (decorative display object) showcasing realistic animal forms.

These sculptures were cast in bronze using lost-wax methods, embellished with hand-carved surface details, finished with chemical patination, and typically mounted on custom-fitted timber bases.

Authentic examples feature defined anatomical detail, subtle dark or patinated finishes, cast or chiseled artist signatures (mei), and naturalistic wooden bases carved to complement the bronze.

Place the sculpture on a sideboard, desk, or fireplace mantelpiece to serve as a tactile, historical focal point that integrates well with natural timber and neutral tones.

Maintain the surface by dusting regularly with a soft, dry cloth and applying microcrystalline wax sparingly to preserve the patina, avoiding chemical polish or abrasive liquids.
