Description: Please see images and read condition descriptionI travel often, I have a 5 business day shipping handling time between purchase and shipping. Please keep in mind when purchasing. I do not make money on shipping so items are well packed and that may include extra weight. I ship small items strictly by Priority Mail US. Larger heavier items may be shipped via Fed Ex]UPS Ground. An amazing 19th c Japanese Meiji Period Stag or Rhinoceros beetle. The conjoined wings on back raise a little to expose a small compartment so maybe it was a snuff box. In fact, there appears to be some old snuff powder/tobacco inside the compartment as shown. It is signed although I don't know the artist. It has a beautiful patina and very similar to the articulated pieces they were so famous for, this one just opens in the back as shown. Measures about 1 1/2" tall x 4 3/8" long x 2 1/4" wide and weighs 4.6 oz. Items I sell are not new. They have been used so do not expect mint condition unless otherwise noted. Measurements are approximate and may not be totally exact. Keep this in mind when bidding. **International Buyers Please Note: We will not falsify customs declarations or mark an item as a "gift". Import duties, taxes, and charges are not included in the item price or shipping cost. These charges are the buyer's responsibility. Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding or buying.
