Beautiful antique Japanese bronze hexagonal jar with matching lid, finely cast in high relief with cranes in flight above stylized ocean waves. The craftsmanship is excellent and is not a cheap company from the 20th or 21st century. It is well crafted from the 19th century. The lid and body are perfectly matched with six panels, each depicting a unique scene of birds and water. Measures approximately 6 inches tall. Warm natural patina with highlights on raised surfaces. A superb example of Meiji-era Japanese metal artistry—ideal for display or as a unique collector’s piece.

Condition: light age-related wear and small patina marks consistent with age. No dents, cracks, or repairs.
