Subject:Japanese bronze koro
Posted By: Stuart Jeffcoat Sun, Aug 28, 2016 IP: 125.237.146.238

Hi again. I would love to hear from anyone who might be able to let me know who this Japanese (I think) bronze koro is by and its approximate age. Thanks in advance for any help.

Indeed Japanese, Meiji period.
I tend to read the signature as in the native Japanese manner as 'Takaraba sei' (用羽製 - made by Takaraba) but I'm not sure. Probably an nickname or alias. Find no futher reference.

Other opninions about this reading are welcome.

Guy.
