Vtg Japanese Buddhist Alar Decorative Part
This is a pair of vintage Japanese parts from a Buddhist altar. They are decorative pillars made of wood with molded resin decorations ( flowers and what appears to be a monk), as well as embossed copper brackets with flowers and other traditional Japanese patterns. There is a resin end cap on one end that acts as a buffer between contact points when installed. They can be used as a spare part, for repair, or as a decorative part. Gold paint is applied only to the front side.
