Description
Rather unusual 19th century Japanese brush holder made out of a length of bamboo rhizome (root). Part of the root is made into a cover to the larger length which is hollowed inside to accommodate a painting brush. Five beautifully carved characters on the top read RAKUTAN YUUGI MOE which can be translated as “day of pleasure with strong affection to tradition/ceremony”. Superbly simple elegant piece in Japanese taste, terminals are finished with black lacquer, beautiful patina, wonderful object for a scholar’s desk, could have been used as a scroll weight. Length 11 inches.
