Referring to the legendary courage of shōbōshi – the firefighters of Japan of the Edo era (17th-18th century) – this arm whose hand is articulated is in linden and pays tribute to the ancestral art of l'irezumi.

Each inch of wood is hand decorated in our workshops:

Crane in full flight under a rising sun and plum branches, symbols of longevity and renewal.
Daruma lucky bear nestled in a bouquet of peonies, winking at perseverance and luck.
On the column of the arm, the intrepid Kintarō riding a koi carp recalls the heroic force capable of raising currents.
The phalanges receive little my (family coat of arms) painted in red and black, typical detail of irezumi codes.

Mounted on a discrete turned base, the arm stands like a workshop totem: its moving joints allow you to adjust the pose to present a jewel, feather or business card.

The patina linden honey, subtly aged, contrasts with the black jais and vermilion inks applied by hand, making each copy absolutely unique.

Perfect for a cabinet de curiosités, a tattoo shop or a desk this tattooed arm celebrates the encounter between western and japanese symbolic craftsmanship.
