Hello All, happy February!
This is a beautiful piece, about 2.5-3” inches tall,
Engraved all over with animals in a leaf and berry design. I believe the exterior is silver, I polished them years ago and they brightened up beautifully. The interior is a beautiful bright gold,
I have two of them, they’re exquisite in every way.
Any ideas as to what they are and who may have made them? They’re signed, any help is welcome.
Thank You,
Tony
Possibly a kogo, for use in holding a few pieces of incense as part of a tea ceremony. I have posted several examples and have a few more to post. Typically made of pottery or wood, but I have seen a few made of metal.
