Alexander_R Posted July 18 Report Posted July 18 Hi, could you tell me something about this kura please besides the mon. For the old the state is almost ideal. Knowing the price of modern work of urushi items the price has to be much higher. 1 Quote
uwe Posted July 18 Report Posted July 18 Lacquerwork seems brand new… First pic is important but too small to get an idea. Quote

uwe Posted July 18 Report Posted July 18 No sign, no date, no makers marks… Maybe an attempt to revive a damaged piece?! Old urushi coatings tending to crack and flake over time, depending on storage conditions… 1 Quote
Iekatsu Posted July 19 Report Posted July 19 I agree with Uwe, the Kura appears to be period, but the restoration is modern. It was likely restored so that it could be used, and the price likely reflects that. Quote
Baka Gaijin Posted July 19 Report Posted July 19 Look at the drips of pigment on the underside of the Kura is this actually lacquer, and not another medium? 1 Quote
