I love Inro, I really do. That's why I was an Inro collector first, and never sold any until I was about 40 years old. And now tht I am retiring, I wish I didn't have to sell all mine ... but I do. My store offers for sale Inro, Japanese Inro, Inro, Netsuke, Sagemono, japanese inro, fubako, suzuribako, gold lacquer, japanese gold inro, and japanese maki-e and makie ...
Wall of Gold Inro added HERE
And for fun, here are 150 photos of Sagemono and Kanamono in gold and silver !
Thumbnails and JPEGS of Many Beautiful Inro Here !
From the first moment that I saw my first Japanese Inro I thought that these small masterpieces were wonderfully beautiful; minature paintings in gold, silver, black lacquer; there is nothing in European or other Asian art to even begin to compare. If you love Inro as I do, please contact me and let's talk.
