work of Japanese gunsmiths in the second half of the 19th century during the Meiji era.
This life-like lobster is designed in two parts:
the body with the head and the tail.
the details are incredible in their precision and finesse with a quality of carving specific to the work of these gunsmiths at that time.
of course our lobster lived and lost its antennae and a claw on one of its legs.
the patina is superb and unaltered.
a magnificent quality and large Japanese bronze.
a collectible bronze.
dimension:
34 cm long by 21 cm wide and 12 cm high.
