Antique 19th Original Very Rare Japanese double Vase SATSUMA UNZAN 31 cm
Japanese antique double vase SATSUMA UNZAN with figures of two figures of Ashinaga-Tenaga - characters with very long limbs covering vases. Such giant monsters with long arms and legs have been repeatedly mentioned in the legends of the northwestern part of Japan; and also often appeared in the subjects of ceramic products of the late 19th - early 20th century. At the bottom of the vases there are author's stamps.

A very rare collector's specimen worthy of a museum. Height 31, width 20x12 cm. Good collectible preservation, a small chip on the reverse side, indicated in the photo. Ashinaga-tenaga is a pair of mythical characters in Japanese folklore, one of them has very long arms, the second has legs. The two work together as a team to fish by the sea.

To do this, a long-armed tenaga man climbs on the back of a long-legged ashing man. The ashinga then makes its way into the ponds, remaining above the water with its long legs, while the tenaga uses its long arms to grab the fish from its partner's back.
