A JAPANESE CARVED OKOMONO OF HOTEL, MEIJI PERIOD. Depicting the God of happiness in well-carved detail. Incased chip on base. Height 3 inches. NOTICE TO BIDDERS OF ASIAN ARTS: Because Chinese/Asian art is often copied from preexisting models or examples, the dating of such objects is often very difficult and opinions vary from one expert to the next. Subsequently, Jackson’s strongly encourages all prospective buyers and/or his/her agent to carefully examine and inspect any and all items they wish to bid on before the auction. All references to time periods and cultures are only an opinion and are not a guarantee of authenticity. If you or your agent cannot personally inspect the property before the sale, Jackson’s recommends that you not bid on the property. 中国/亚洲艺术品常为已有艺术品的临摹之作，因此作品日期往往难以考证，专家意见也各不相同。所以，Jackson’s 强烈建议所有有意购买者和/或其代理在拍卖前对所有欲竞投之物品进行仔细查验。提及的年代和文化都只是一家之言，并非真品之担保。如果您或您的代理不能在售前亲自查看该物品，则 Jackson 建议您不要对其进行竞投。
