Complex Netsuke: Fu Dog and Qilin

(Code NC009)

Description
Netsuke reproductions hand-carved from boxwood with each one signed by the carver. A Japanese toggle originally used to secure small objects to traditional dress. We have a wide range of subjects but some present a real challenge to the carvers and are sold at a premium price. Currently, we have various Chinese Lions, Fu Dogs and Qilins in this category. Please tell us your preference or ask for pictures of current stock.
