I bought this shrine and I would like to know if anyone could help me age it or tell my anything about it.

Japanese. Shinto. Danced down the streets at one of a myriad small neighborhood shrine festivals.

Typical Chinese architecture, including eaves, roof truss, painted rafters and pillars. Narrow but high doors and door fastener, as they were used in interior as well exterior settings. Character decoration on red doors. The whole seems to be slightly blackened by incense smoke.
