Figure Amid The Ruins, Apt for 2025 1988 Brass Brooch fitted lid black paper was used on

black paper was used on both sides--folded

The bottles and stoppers are all in great shape

they are really inspiring me add vintage Japanese fans to my ongoing collecting obsessions

Figure Amid The Ruins, Apt for 2025 1988 Brass Brooch fitted lid black paper was used onI am always interested in the conversation between vintage antique objects and the present moment, and what is happening in the larger world always informs what I buy because it shapes what feels resonant hence this 1988 brooch, which, with shadowy figure standing amid the ruins, feels to me completely apt for the moment. Also very 1980s post mod. 2 1 16 w x 1 13 16 t and in excellent condition. Marked JJ 1988 on reverse.
