Subject:identify name on a bronze Japanese sculpture
Posted By: Steve Bourget Sun, Nov 25, 2018 IP: 2a01:cb00:7f3:9a00:7
Dear specialists, could you help me identify the name of the Japanese artist who made this water dropper?

Many thanks, Steve

Reads 'Wadô (no) saku' (和銅作) which can be translated as 'Japanese-style bronze model'. Meiji period.
Is there no other inscription referring a maker's name?

Guy.
