Subject:Japanese signature ID on wood sculpture
Posted By: Jaime Thu, Mar 24, 2016 IP: 45.49.148.181
Hello there:
Thank you in advance for any help you can provide.I'm having trouble identifying the signature on this abstract wooden sculpture. I do not read Japanese so I'm hoping someone here can I help. I've enhanced the pic in Photoshop a little so hopefully it is clear enough.
Best wishes!

Looks like someone surnamed Ishihara, but the photo isn't clear enough to read the third character 石原X治

Surname is Ishihara 石原, but I don't know the pronunciation of the given name. You can always try calling them, though I don't know that they will speak english: +81 467-22-0404
