Japanese Wooden Bear Carving (Kibori Kuma) Japanese Kibori Kuma wooden %%alt5%% %%alt6%%
A finely carved Japanese Kibori Kuma, crafted from richly grained wood and depicting a bear mid-stride with a salmon clasped in its jaws. This expressive sculpture hails from Hokkaido, where such carvings became popular in the early 20th century as a fusion of indigenous Ainu artistry and Japanese folk tradition. The bear’s fur is rendered with dynamic, flowing cuts, while the fish is delicately detailed, capturing a moment of primal vitality. A striking piece of cultural heritage and craftsmanship.

Here at Sinclair's Antiques and Interiors we do our utmost best to ensure all our items are described and photographed to show any flaws or damage such as shrinkage splits, losses or lifts to veneer, repairs or marks. However, giving the age and the fact that each piece will have had years of polishing to create its own individual character we cannot describe every minor mark separately and therefore recommend you either visit our warehouse or request extra photographs.
