Catalogue - Korean Art Brass Ware and Ancient Cabinet & Chests Manufactured by K. Inouye, Kobe

[Japan] Very scarce catalogue of Korean furniture sold by K. Inouye [Inoue] of Ikuta-maye [mae] in Kobe. This catalogue dates from the period when Korea was colonised by Japan but it is interesting to see the group portrait of the Inouye company team which clearly consists of Korean and Japanese people working together. According to the title page, the company sold 'Eastern Antiques from China, Korea, Japan', including 'Wood and Ivory Carvings, Porcelains, Bronzes, Cloisonne Ware, Lacquer Ware.' 

 

Kobe. K. Inouye. ND [c1920].

 

14 leaves. 19.5 x 14.8cm.

 

In very good condition. Light crease running down centre but otherwise very good. b36101720
