This was once part of a pot hook called a Jizai Kagi meaning articulated hook.

These hooks were suspended over the coals in a traditional Japanese House.

They were able to be adjusted up and down to move the pot of water or food, higher or lower to the coals as a way of controlling the cooking temperature.

The hooks are not so useful now but parts of them are often quite decorative, like our fish here. A fabulous carving with great grain structure showing through. 

Display it as is, it can be strung up with a rope and hung. 

Carved Keyaki Elm wood with brass eyes.  A wonderfully tactile object. 

Measures 33.5cm long

A lifetime of use

Patina

Patina is something earned over years of use and care, we like to leave it on as much as possible as it adds to the authenticity and story of each piece. Daniel has been restoring Japanese Antiques for 25 years, over that time he has learned both traditional and modern techniques for repairing and caring for treasured pieces.

Authenticity Guaranteed

All of our pieces are guaranteed original and authentic, each piece is researched to ensure our descriptions are as accurate as possible. We love history and discovering all about the artefacts we uncover for you.
