Posted By: Guy Tue, Feb 03, 2015 Nice Japanese Meiji era bronze 'okimono' (statue) of a fox. The seal reads 'Juzan chûzô (壽山鑄造, 'casted by Juzan'). I should date it ca. 1900 or slightly later. |

Posted By: Guy Thu, Feb 05, 2015 My pleasure. Just wanted to add that the fox (kitsune) has a special place in Japanese mythology. |
