    Giant Asian key with artwork, don't know what kind of material it's made from. Don't know the background or the significance of the key. It's very unique and beautiful for a collector.

      it alls breath longevity in mijn opinion in pinyin the symbol in picture one is a shou , but iy is also in kanji ( japanees-)

      the crane symbolises longevity


      lets for discussion sake declare the old bold man Fukurokuju we peel off the kanji etymologiscal (???; from Japanese fuku, "happiness"; roku, "wealth"; and ju, "longevity")


      it is just a thesis
