Before returning to Japan, Kazuhide Takahama designed Dino Gavina's Naeko sofa. While staying in Japan, he was a professor at the university and curator for architectural and design projects, but still maintained contacts with Gavina, who finally persuaded him to move to Italy.

The particular death mask in question is original and is the first cast, as evidenced by the biological remains on the mask. Unfortunately, the identity of the man is unknown, but due to the features of the mask, it appears that he was a monk. An unusual addition to any room, carrying a profound symbolic meaning - Memento mori. Death masks are certainly one of the more intriguing traditions of humanity and a way people have preserved the memory of the deceased. The most famous death masks undoubtedly come from Egypt, where they were buried with the dead. Similarly, wax death masks from ancient Rome are known, which were used as models for carving into tombstones. A similar tradition continued for centuries until the end of the Middle Ages when they began to be made from plaster. At that time, masks began to be used in funeral rites, and then they were kept in libraries, museums, and universities. Death masks were made not only for royal members and nobility but also for prominent figures such as poets, philosophers, and playwrights. Like in ancient Rome, these death masks were often used for portraits, sculptures, busts, or engravings depicting the deceased.

CHASTITY BELT
The chastity belt.
Who hasn't heard of the chastity belt? A device that supposedly helped husbands and fathers ensure that their wives and daughters remained untouched and "pure" as far back as the Middle Ages. This was said to be a metal belt tightened around a woman's waist, locked by the man with a large padlock. This medieval man could then be free of worries that his chosen one would engage in sexual relations with someone else, despite their prolonged absence due to wars. How barbaric and unhygienic, isn't it? At least that's the story that has been told for centuries. Simple, shocking, and somewhat amusing, as it portrays past people as extremely backward, contrasting with our enlightened and better selves. However, this is not the true story of the chastity belt. The truth is, there is no physical evidence that chastity belts existed in those times, at least not in a physical form. They are mentioned a few times in literature and depicted in artworks, albeit more in an allegorical and satirical sense. The earliest evidence of a chastity belt can be found in a book by military engineer von Eichstadt from 1405, which described catapults, armor, and torture devices, including a sketch of a chastity belt. Historians are convinced that this was just one of the humorous inventions he included in the book, similar to a device for becoming invisible or a fart-propelled contraption, which further solidifies the fact that chastity belts were not used in the Middle Ages. The surviving examples of chastity belts found today are believed to have been made in the 19th century. With the advent of industrialization in Europe, materials such as iron and steel became more accessible, and soon blacksmiths realized there was a particular market they could tap into. Puritanical masses of that time were willing to pay a lot of money to view medieval torture devices in museums and exhibitions, satisfying their craving for their own judgment of medieval barbarism. Thus, blacksmiths of that time made several torture devices, including chastity belts, and sold them to museums and collections. Interestingly, the chastity belt probably was never in widespread use in the past, but its use has spread precisely in modern times, in BDSM and fetish communities. Thus, the chastity belt is an urban legend of the Middle Ages that has survived to this day. Now it can be an interesting addition to any historical collection or a fascinating ornament to spark debates. Certainly, one of those pieces that tell a story and stimulate our imagination. Dimensions: 55 x 35 x 25 cm Weight: 4 kg The chastity belt is in excellent condition.
DEGE MASK
Dege Mask.
An African mask depicting the black monkey "Dege," from the Dogon people. The Dogon are an ethnic group in Mali. Masks crafted by this African tribe come in various styles, employing different geometric shapes in their designs, depending on the animal the mask is meant to represent. Most masks feature large eyes and stylized features, often painted or colored with various substances. The Dogon have been using masks since ancient times, particularly during the Dama ceremony, a memorial ritual for the deceased, believed to guide them to the realm of ancestors and restore order in the universe. These ceremonies often require a large attendance, with several hundred accompanying the deceased. Masks also appear in "baga-bundo" rites, performed before the burial of a Dogon male, which typically involve fewer participants. Inspiration for the masks comes from the animals found in their region, with common depictions including antelopes, rabbits, lions, hyenas, cows, birds, and monkeys. The specific mask represents the black monkey Dege. The Dogon typically use three types of monkey masks, distinguished only by color rather than shape. The black monkey is known as Dege, the white monkey as Omono, and the red monkey as Ko. Dimensions: 33.5 x 18.5 x 16 cm Weight: 1 kg The mask is in excellent condition.
