Fresh find from our recent Japanese Acquisitions Travels
Great Industrial, mechanical antique wood and iron Japanese pulley (Kassha) made from Keyaki wood. Mortise and tenon construction. Still works! Was probably used as a well pulley.
Comes complete with an impressive wrought iron hanger.
Its substantial size suggests an important industrial purpose. Either way it is an historic gem and the only work of art of its kind we have ever seen complete with its likely original hanger.
Dimensions: 20 inches in length to top of wrought iron hanger
This dates to the Edo period, circa 1850.
Provenance: Private Japanese Otsu collection.
