Netsuke Message Board Message Board Posted by Quinn on May 08, 2006 at 00:53:13:
I have several nice netsuke that I would like to sell. They were collected in Japan in the 50's and early 60's. They are all ivory, and are not repros. All of them are signed, although I have no idea of the names. Of the six I have to sell, 5 of them are in excellent condition. A musician with a kimono hanging off his arm has a chip in the end of his kimono. The rest are in great condition. The neatest one is a squatting girl with a large mask on her back. The eyes on the mask bug out, and it is really cool. There is a cute little pig, and also a turtle with another smaller turtle on his back. There are two more that have scrolls in their hands, and one of them has a walking stick. They are really nice. I am not an expert, but I am sure that several of them are 19th century, and think possibly a couple are 18th century. You will need to make that determination for yourself. I would be happy to send pictures of them to you, and will consider all offers. My e-mail address is eskimo@sbcglobal.net
