Welcome!
Up for your consideration is a vintage Japanese abacus. This great old collectable is in excellent condition for it's age.
All measurements are approximate: The abacus measures 13" long and is 4 1/4" wide. It is 1 1/2" deep. It has 15 rows of beads. Each row has 5 beads in the bottom section and 1 bead in the top section. There are Japanese symbols on the back and above each row of beads. (see pictures) I have no idea what they say or stand for. If any one has any idea please let me know. This is the first abacus that I have seen. I can not believe the condition. A collector dated this piece back to the middle 1800's. Thank you for your interest and good luck.
