**Originally Listed At $250**

East Asia, Japan, Edo period, ca. 1603 to 1868 CE. A lovely group of cast-copper menuki, petite ornaments meant to be displayed behind the cotton handle wrappings of a traditional Japanese sword. One menuki depicts a pair of flowers atop a leafy stalk; another shows five stylized birds in flight; and the last features a strung bow surmounted by a bulbous arrow case. Thin layers of applied gilding (95-98%) are meant to accentuate some finer details, and smooth patina has formed across most obverse surfaces. Size of largest (flowers and leaves): 2.1" L (5.3 cm); quality of gilding: 95-98%.
