With workshops in both Tokyo and Yokohama, the company crafted these sculptures with a distinctive rich brown patina and intricate gilded details. In 1881, the Miyao Company showcased its impressive collection at the prestigious National Industrial Exposition (Naikoku Kangyo Hakurankai). The company's creations often drew inspiration from Japanese legends and mythology, resonating with both the domestic market, where the symbolism was deeply embedded, and the international audience, captivated by the exotic themes and masterful craftsmanship.
