Standing over seven feet tall, this monumental display shelf was produced in Japan at the end of the Edo period, late 19th century. It features remarkable, detailed carving rivaling anything produced in Japan or China during any period. This cabinet has been carved in the Chinese style, featuring many elements of Ming Dynasty carving from the Jiangxi area. Unlike a Chinese piece of similar quality, however, this design features three-clawed dragons, endemic to Japanese designs, over the imperial five-clawed dragons that would certainly appear on a piece of this caliber crafted in china. In addition, this cabinet features numerous scenes and floral motifs, all brilliantly carved to an intricate and fully-carved back ground. less
