Thank you for viewing. This is a very impressive wooden carving of a thoroughbred, once sold for 430,000 yen. It was found during a house clean-out at my parents' home. It has such a powerful presence and beauty that it would be a shame to leave it as is, so I'm offering it to someone who appreciates its value, or to those who want to improve the luck of their home or office. ✅ Original price: 430,000 yen, a top-of-the-line item As the photos show, the original price tag remains. In this day and age, it's impossible to create a work of this size using solid wood and hand-carving by artisans at this price. It's a masterpiece, a legacy of the good old days like the bubble era. ✅ Estimated Material: High-grade solid wood While the exact type of wood cannot be determined, based on the original price, the characteristic heavy texture of Hokkaido folk crafts, and the strong and beautiful wood grain, it is believed that precious woods such as "Enju (Japanese Pagoda Tree)" or "Keyaki (Japanese Zelkova)" were used luxuriously. You can feel the substantial weight and the warmth of the polished wood. ✅ "Horse" is the ultimate lucky charm Horses are symbols of "things going well," "good luck rushing in," and "success in life and business prosperity," making them ideal for display in the entrance, living room, or president's office. 【Size】 Marking: 25 gou (Japanese size) Actual size (approx.): Width 76cm x Height 75cm x Depth 20cm *Please note that there may be slight variations due to amateur measurements. It is quite large and has a sense of weight. 【Condition】 It is old, so it has a certain aged feel. ・There are natural cracks in the base due to wood shrinkage (see photos). ・Other than that, there are minor scratches, but it is generally in good condition for display. We have set a very reasonable price for those who can appreciate it as the "taste" of an antique. 【About Shipping】 As this is a valuable item, we will pack it carefully and ship it. (※If it does not fit in the standard Mercari shipping size, we may switch to another method) Interior object Showa retro antique vintage antique art woodworking Hokkaido folk art one-stroke carving
