Higo-san Posted December 9, 2017 Report Share Posted December 9, 2017 Dear all, I am offering a really nice russet iron menpo dating from the Edo period. I bought this piece at Kinokuniya in Tokyo. It was attributed to a Kaga craftsman. Unfortunately, the lacing of the yodare kake needs some restoration work to be done (it is kept together by some strings at the moment) but I am sure Dave Thatcher or others can help. The mask itself is in a very nice condition. Dimensions: 17 cm (from ear to ear) x 12 cm (height of the mask without the yodare kake) Asking price: EUR 2,400.00 including standard worldwide insured shipping with DHL and PayPal fees Best, Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J Reid Posted December 9, 2017 Report Share Posted December 9, 2017 This is a very fine menpo. Beautiful! I'm in the market for one myself at the moment. Unfortunately my budget just isn't at this level. However, if someone is looking to acquire one presently, and can afford this, I recommend buying it ASAP.
