This is an authentic early-1900s Japanese bronze koro (incense burner) featuring a charming and symbolic mouse figurine perched on a textured koban-shaped base. Mice are traditional good-luck symbols in Japan, often associated with prosperity and protection, making this a meaningful and highly collectible piece.
The koro is crafted from solid bronze, richly aged with a natural dark patina developed over many decades. The lid features multiple incense ventilation holes arranged beautifully around the mouse figure, allowing smoke to gently rise during use.
This is a rare folk-art style bronze—perfect for collectors of Japanese antiques, incense tools, mouse-themed art, or wabi-sabi décor.
Sourced directly from an official Japan Government Auction, ensuring authenticity and provenance.
