Description: Antique C1920s Asahi Shoten Japanese Sterling Silver Torii Shinto Gate Pepper Pot/Shaker. In good antique condition with one small ding to the top centre of the gate and two small pin head dings to the back. I’m not sure how to open the pot if you wish to use it. There may be the remnants of spice from previous owners. I have not wanted to cause damage by trying to open the base. I have not tried soaking and have arthritis in my hands, so thought it best to leave it. Measurements approximately: Height 7cm (2 & 3/4”) Width 6.5cm (2 & 1/2”) Depth 2.5cm (1”) Weight: 28.38g I have given it a quick wipe over, but as with all my items I don't over clean or polish. There may be the odd age related wear/mark commensurate with age, anything of note is listed above. Please see all photos using the zoom function available, as they constitute the item description. Please note where possible packaging is recycled. If purchasing via expedited shipping despatch time will be one working day maximum. I only ship internationally via eBay’s GSP service, as the U.K. does not provide a fully tracked service. Check out my other listings for more antique, vintage and collectable silver. If you have any queries please don't hesitate to contact me.
