Item Details

Description

**Originally Listed At $500**

East Asia, Japan, Meiji period, ca. late 19th to early 20th century CE. A fantastic cast brass demon figure, interpreted as reaching out to snatch your soul! This is a mythical Oni demon, crouching with a loincloth around his waist. In this rendering he appears as an older human man, but his boney spine and little horns certainly give away his true a demonic identity. The loin cloth is painted with blue and green pigments, and red paint highlights his horns. Oni figures represent all the traits and emotions associated with human wrongdoing, and they are said to linger around evil people. These wicked spirits can be cast out of the home by voicing simple chants and throwing soybeans. A nice dark patina covers this fabulous piece! Size: 4.25" W x 4.5" H (10.8 cm x 11.4 cm); 5,5" H (139.7 cm) on included custom stand.
