A RARE STAG ANTLER NETSUKE OF A SHISHI
Unsigned
Japan, 19th century, Edo period (1615-1868)
Carved from the base of the antler, the coronet still visible and used as the pedestal for the Shishi. The lion dog is seated, all four paws firmly placed on the ground, and shows an amusingly anthropomorphic expression, with human-like teeth and an enigmatic expression with large eyes. The back of the head with finely carved curls, one of them flowing downwards to the very good himotoshi, one larger and one smaller - exactly as they should be.
HEIGHT 5 cm
