A RARE STAG ANTLER NETSUKE OF OKAME
Unsigned
Japan, 19th century, Edo period (1615-1868)
A compact and charming stag antler netsuke of a mischievously grinning Okame, holding the hem of her finely decorated robe and covering her mouth, laughing. The Shinto goddess's head is of slightly phallic proportions with large chubby cheeks and a high forehead. Her long hair is beautifully incised and falls towards the ground. The use of material is masterful, with little porous surfaces visible (notably only on the top of her head). Himotoshi through the back.
HEIGHT 5.1 cm
Condition: Minor expected wear to the decorations of the garment. Very good condition.
Provenance: European collection.
