An amusing netsuke boldly carved with strong features, depicting a pepper peddler carrying an oversized pepper. His broad smile and the shape of the vegetable could lead us to believe that this netsuke has shunga connotations. The wood bears a fine patina and lovely tone. A very good netsuke that makes me smile.
