Pair of Sword-Grip Ornaments (Menuki)
Pair of Sword-Grip Ornaments (Menuki) by artist. Two small, gold-colored metal ornaments in the shape of monkeys. The monkey on the left side is sitting with its feet flat on the surface, holding a fruit in both hands. The monkey on the right side is sitting with one leg tucked under its body and the other bent in front, holding a leafy branch in both hands and smelling or inspecting it. The ornaments are symmetrical, with the monkeys facing each other. The background is a plain light gray color.
