I have been asked about availability of a 'rat and kabuto' menuki but have not received a response to my reply so am hoping to reach the interested party here. As we do not have a menuki with both rat and kabuto, we are including pictures of a rat menuki, a kabuto menuki, and one of Daikoku with rice bales (upper-right and perhaps mistaken for a kabuto with rats - I can see how that might happen.)
The single rat would be $40 (nice, black surface on copper-rich alloy with some fine work suggesting hair).
The kabuto would be $45 (good, old black patina with some inlay and traces of gilt overlay - may be easier to pair with another, accoutrement menuki).
The Daikoku with rice bales and rats would be $50 (the back actually suggests decent, old patina on copper-rich alloy and the face with gold overlay).
[these prices include free USPS 'Small Flat Rate Box' shipping within the United States]
See our earlier pictures which also include the backs of these three. Recall that these were pulled from a chadonsu and therefore have solder traces on the backs. Not having previously included prices in our posts to the 'menuki orphanage', we will extend this exercise if there is interest.
