Item Details
Description
A very fine intact set of twelve carved netsuke representing the zodiac. Each artist signed example with inlaid eyes is very finely carved and displays very nice patina.

This collection is displayed in a small divided case with interesting labels and written information from Josephine Bird Hall, a lifelong collector of Asian and other antiques who lived in Kansas City, Missouri from 1888 to 1948.

Sizes range from 0.75 x 1.25 x 1.5 to 1.5 x 1 x 0.75 inches.

Provenance: The collection of Josephine Bird Hall (1888 - 1948) by descent to her son, the present owner. Josephine's father was a founder of Kansas City's Emery, Bird, Thayer Department Store.
