Vintage Japanese Nihongami Lacquered Wooden Kogai Kanzashi Hair Ornament Aug17M

Antique lacquered Wooden Kogai Kanzashi Hair Ornament


This item came from the Gion Kobu Geisha District of Kyoto. It is made of tsuge boxwood, lacquered in a deep brown (looks almost black) and inset with mother or pearl in a chrysanthemum design. It is probably about 60-70 years old. A tiny piece of the mother of pearl artwork seems to be missing from each end but it is otherwise in excellent condition - see photos. We have priced in according to its quality and condition. It measures about: 16cm (6½") in length and comes apart at the center.

Weight: 8g
