THE JAPANESE ART OF CHOKIN

Metal engravings from Japan are created by the ancient art of Chokin. Gilded with gold and silver, the engravings were originally created to decorate the armament of the SAMURAI WARRIORS. 24kt Gold Edged

As with all things Japanese, the detail is magnificent. I think the pink could be copper? There are 2 thick edges in 24kt gold and then the gold and silver in the engraving. Please do note though, the stands are hardened plastic. No cracks. Chip as per pick on base. Stickers attached. Signed.

PLEASE CHECK THUMBNAILS

Although I am a passionate lover of vintage and antique treasures, I am not an expert antiques dealer and can, on occasion, mistakenly identify items. I try my best and spend a lot of time researching every piece, as this is the passion that drives me - the history and stories behind each piece. Pieces may contain imperfections, as is common with wear and age. I select items that pull at my heart. Sometimes these blemishes add to the character and personality of the piece and I fall in love with it, flaws and all. I do my best to show and/or describe the imperfections that I find so you can decide if it's something you will fall in love with as well.
