    Description

    Antique Japanese Floral Design
    Obidome Kimono Kitsuke Formal Accessory
    With Sash/Belt
    Lot of 2
    In very fine or better condition.
    Without original package.
    From my 93yo mother's collection, gifted to her, when she lived in Japan.
    They were in wooden box marked "Obidome (2 Antique)" with the post it note in her writing shown.
    The one on the left has a hallmark in Japanese
    and as noted, is the "Shibuichi alloy Copper & Silver (menuki)"
    Shibuichi = 3 parts copper, one part silver.
    Menuki is either a maker or style.
    The one on the right, only marked 18k, and as noted, is "Riku obidome 18k gold".
    Very difficult to research words or to get info on these older pieces.
    I do not know the makers, exact age or
    provenance
    .
    These could be a very rare find.
    Please view all pictures closely as they are part of the description.
