Intricate Hand-Carved Wooden Salmon Sculpture – Late Meiji to Early Showa Era
This is a highly detailed and delicately crafted wooden sculpture of a salmon, dating from the late Meiji to early Showa period. Such items were traditionally used in old-fashioned Japanese taverns and restaurants, often hung either at the entrance or inside the establishment as a signboard.
The purpose of this wooden salmon was to signal to passersby or workers finishing their day that the establishment had received excellent fish, such as fresh salmon or tuna, on that day. It served as an invitation, drawing crowds into the establishment.
While carp-shaped Jizai-kagi horizontal beams are more commonly found, signboards of this type are quite rare. This item is particularly suitable for avid lovers of salmon, Japanese history enthusiasts, or collectors of fine wood carvings.
Don’t miss this chance to own a piece of history!
