East Asia, Japan, Edo Period, ca. 1603 to 1868 CE. A lovely arrow case (known as a "ya") that is mold-formed from thin wooden sheets which are then hardened and covered with jet-black lacquer. The case is defined by a bulbous top section, a bottom section bearing an ovoid panel secured with a slender leather strap, and a leather carrying strap on the exterior. The hollow interior enables dozens of arrows to be contained at any time, and an incised base is meant to house the curved prongs of each projectile. The exterior of the sealable panel bears a circular gilt (98%) panel of three leaves and a pair of vines, and the top of the case displays an ornate, gilded leaf. Size: 4.125" W x 37.7" H (10.5 cm x 95.8 cm); quality of gilding: 98%.
Provenance: private J.H. collection, Beaverton, Oregon, USA; ex-private Onomichi, Hiroshima, Japan collection
