Rather unusual 19th century Japanese bronze scroll weight cast in a form of a long-legged rain dragon standing with its head turned back and looking up. Superb elegant modeling of the beast with its thin limbs which are very difficult to cast, superb patination ranging in color from dark red to brown to black, in excellent condition, pleasantly heavy. Cast with 2 Japanese characters on the bottom reading TANIHIRO (alternative readings are Haseko or Kokuhiro)...
