Vintage sculpture "Meoto" ("Happy Couple"). Silver figures are mounted on a stand made of silver-plated metal. The composition is closed in a glass box. There are markings on the base. Japan, twentieth century.
The “happy couple”, or “Meoto” (“Newlyweds”), is one of the oldest images in Japanese mythology. An elderly couple—his name is Ju (尉) and her name is Uba (媼), known together as the Jotomba—are said to emerge from the fog near Lake Takasago. The old man and his wife are usually depicted talking happily in front of a pine tree. Denoting a couple living in complete harmony until old age, they have long been a symbol of the happiness of family life. Such sculptural compositions are often given to newlyweds and for anniversaries.
