A kagamibuta-style netsuke depicting Jurojin, the god of longevity, riding on the back of a large crane in gold and silver, set against a large moon and crashing waves.
The bowl was turned from rosewood by Adam Bland as a replacement for the ivory. The ivory bowl is still with the netsuke and subject to export laws; both bowls will come with the netsuke.
Signed - Muchaku literally means "Non attachment" (in a Zen Buddhist sense)
Late 19th century
4cm wide
