Vase with spider, Japan,

Meiji period (late 19th-early 20th century),

Patinated bronze,

11 h × 5½ dia in (28 × 14 cm)

On a misty day, the view from the living room of Reiko and Yoshihiro Takishita's 250-year-old home in the hills of Kamakura looks like a modern silkscreen... Flanking the door are an Edo period merchant's chest (tansu) with a Meiji era basket, an 18th century bronze temple candlestick, and a Sendai chest, also Meiji, topped by a late Edo lantern that burned camellia oil.
