A STAG ANTLER NETSUKE OF A DOG ON A CUSHION
Unsigned
Japan, 19th century, Edo period (1615-1868)
Carved from heavily porous antler and depicting a dog lying curled up on a lobed cushion. The underside is black and porous and shows one larger himotoshi, with the smaller one through the back of the dog. Facing the difficult restrictions of this material, the artist did a sublime job creating a charming study of a snoozing dog.
HEIGHT 2.2 cm, LENGTH 3.9 cm
Condition: Very good condition with many typical inclusions. The underside with natural wear around the himotoshi revealing the spongiform structure inside.
Provenance: Hungarian collection.
