    With Hand painted Japanese women in different scenes.
    It is 10" tall and the painted pieces are 2 3/4" x 6"
    I think this is mid-century?
    It is missing some of the nails that attach the hinges, but i can fix that

    Chinese women (dress, hairstyle), and I agree, the four seasons.:)

    Definitely not geishas.:stop: Geisha is a certain profession in Japan. I know you don't mean any harm when using the term geisha, but it is considered an insult to call women geisha just because they are East Asian.
