Condition:
Subject: Measuring approximately 44mm in width this item is in excellent condition with a nice old patina. I am not sure whether to call this piece a Netsuke or Okimino as it is is pierced through and might fit on a cord. This piece appears to have never been cleaned. This item arrives from the local estate of a nationally prominent family and was part of sizable Netsuke collection assembled in the 1920s.
Cluster of four bells, or possibly mokugyo (wooden gongs), with an inset carved scene of a boat on a river, and other inset carved scene of a bridge.
