On offer is a lacquer-and-gilt-on-wood depiction of a standing Amida Buddha encased in its original lacquer-on-wood zushi, mid-Edo Period ca. 1750. An original ensemble in unaltered original condition, desirably patinated, showing loss to the tips of the upraised fingers of the figure's right hand, a tiny chip to the thumb of the left hand, loss of two finials on the plinth, loss to one corner of the zushi's right-hand door, and lacquer loss around the lower edge of the zushi's backside. The gilt-copper hinges and closing clasp are intact and fully functional. Although imperfect, the condition is not the least bit problematic, particularly in view of this piece's age. Dimensions of zushi exterior: Height: 35.2 cm (13.9 in) Width: 12.8 cm (5.0 in) Depth: 9.0 cm (3.5 in) Height of Buddha figure only: 16.5 cm (6.5 in)
Shipping: EMS airmail shipping and insurance for this piece will be US$48 for Europe and US$42 for North America and Oceania.
