This is a curious item: a stick labeled "Hinawa, Keijo" with rope wrapped around it. It's likely something used for torches or similar purposes. What is Keijo? It seems to refer to either the old name for Kyoto or the name for Seoul during the period of Japanese rule. Either way, it appears to be a rare item. The rope is hardened and shows signs of age-related damage. For reference. Regular mail will only be sent on weekdays, so please allow extra time. Thank you for your understanding. The images are everything, so please check the condition carefully. Please note that the color of the images may differ slightly from the actual item due to your computer environment. If you are concerned, please refrain from purchasing. Please refer to the ruler for the size. When purchasing, please check the images carefully. Due to work commitments, I may be slow to respond to comments or ship items. Packing will be done using recycled materials. I will prioritize purchases even if there are comments. #Woodcarving #AntiqueTools #Woodworking #FleaMarket #Hinawa (Matchcord/Fuse) #FolkCrafts #Object #Mingei (Folk Art) #Sculpture #AntiqueTools #Antiques #Torch #LocalHistoryMaterials
