Description

As part of our Japanese works of art collection we are delighted to offer this rare Meiji period 1868-1921 silvered bronze okimono of a snowy Owl resting upon a naturalistic root wood base, the majestic bird of prey sits wings closed but poised to strike, his eyes firmly fixed on something that has caught its attention, probably its next meal, his razor sharp talons are highlighted in shakudo , with his beak and eyes picked out in gilt and shakudo, he is fixed to a super piece of Japanese hardwood by two locating pins and is artist signed in a gilt seal to the underside that translates to Yasumasa, a rare and unusual find that would make a great addition to your okimono or Japanese works of art collection .

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.
