[QUOTE="capitulation, post: 1038634, member: 10248"]Hi - I picked this up at my local junk shop for $2 and am trying to identify the technique used. It appears to be a kind of threaded work when I look at it under the magnifying glass. Its so perfectly done I find it hard to believe it could have been hand done, but I have no idea. Its residing in a piece of glass thats clear on both sides. The composition looks Japanese to me - but interested to hear more expert opinions. It has no signature. In the bottom shot Im holding it up to the light - it has very beautiful grey shaded tones to it and almost shimmers when its backlit. Thanks much antiquers!
