    Description

    Hello, Edo koma Fans !
    It is the wonderful edo koma top.
    The artisan is Hiroi Michiaki,
    His signature is not written, but it is a work that appears in the book of his collection of works.
    And it's in the box of his shop.
    This is a top called a lantern and a bell.
    Lanterns and bells are a little similar in shape but completely different in weight and incomparable. It's a metaphor for things that aren't balanced.
    This top is balanced like a yajirobei.
    I think it takes a lot of practice to turn it well. I can't turn it well. I gave up.
    First, turn the top below, and then turn the daruma doll on top of it..difficult
    Height of top  .. H11cm, 86g
    Daruma top.. H4cm
    The length of the lantern from the bell .. 15.5 cm,
    It's in an old box. There is deterioration on the lid of the box.
    It is a top in very good condition, but please understand handmade products, color unevenness due to aging, etc.
