A large ivory netsuke of an elongated grazing horse - Avorio - Giappone - Meiji period (late 19th century)
An ivory netsuke depicting a horse standing in a characteristic posture, with its head lowered to the ground, the front legs held together, and the tail resting over its back beneath the himotoshi holes.
The surface is smooth to the touch, enriched by a warm patina and softly rounded forms that reflect prolonged handling and use.
Netsuke, composed of the kanji ne (根), meaning "root," and tsuke (付け), meaning "to attach," are small Japanese sculptures originally used as fasteners to secure objects to the sashes of kimono (obi 帯). From the late 19th century they became highly collectible in Europe and America, admired for the variety of subjects, the fine details, the patina and their strong tactile appeal.
---The netsuke is in very good condition. There are some natural ivory hairlines. Please refer to the pictures for further details.
The item will be carefully packed and shipped via DHL or FedEx, accompanied by the original certificate of authenticity issued by Mastromauro Japanese art gallery based in Milan, Italy.
This lot complies with the current European Community regulations for the trade of pre-1947 worked ivory. The original CITES certificate will be delivered together with the object (valid only within the European Union).
This item cannot be sold outside the EU
