SOLD
Edo period 19th century Oni, poorly attempting to hide in a heater box from Setsubun beans being thrown during the Spring festival Haru Matsuri.
Although a common model this Netsuke sets itself apart from others I have seen of this subject. The quality and expression of the carving combined with the lovely warm patina and interesting Himotoshi really gives this little Oni that something special.
Signed to the base Masatomo - Nagoya
Size: 3.4cm
Condition - perfect with a lovely patina
