FAQs

An okimono is a traditional Japanese decorative statue or carving, typically displayed in a home alcove or on a shelf, which gained significant popularity during the Meiji period for export and domestic display.

Meiji period carvers frequently utilised boxwood, known locally as huang yang or tsuge, alongside ivory, bronze, and mixed metals to achieve intricate detailing and warm patination.

Authentic pieces typically exhibit hand-carved tool marks, natural grain shrinkage, aged patina, and often feature artist signatures or seals on the base, reflecting the high craftsmanship of the era.

Place the carving as a focal point on a minimalist sideboard, mantelpiece, or bookshelf to allow its intricate texture and historical character to stand out against clean, contemporary lines.

Maintain stable indoor humidity levels, keep the sculpture out of direct sunlight to prevent drying and fading, and clean gently with a soft, dry brush to avoid damaging the aged surface.
