A Pair of Japanese Meiji Period bronze vases with silver, cold, copper, and shakudo decoration of long beaked birds and a heron. Meiji Period (1868-1912).

Heron.

The heron often stands still for long periods of time stalking prey, because of this they represent patience in Japanese culture, and are associated with the harsh cold of winter.

Shakudo is an alloy of gold and copper which can be treated to develop a black patina.
