Sen-oku Hakuko Kan (泉屋博古館) is located in Kyoto, Japan and houses a large collection of Chinese bronze vessels, Chinese and Japanese mirrors, and a few Chinese bronze Buddhist figures. The collection was brought together by Sumitomo Kichizaemon VII before his death in 1926. It is credited with being one of the greatest collections of Asian bronzes in the world due to the collection's quality and the variety of its more than 500 pieces. The museum houses more than 3,500 cultural objects, two of which have been designated by the Japanese government as National Treasures, 19 as Important Cultural Properties, and 60 as Important Art Objects (ja).
