Item Details

Description

African Ivory. Bidders should be aware of the changing laws regarding commercialization of ivory and other product containing endangered species both on the Federal and State levels. This lot will be accompanied by a signed affidavit from the client that this object was in the United States prior to January 18, 1990, and is to the best of their knowledge and ability made prior to February 26, 1976 in accordance with Federal law. Ivory cannot be shipped out of the United States or to New York or New Jersey, and will not be shipped to California after June 30, 2016.

Japan, Edo Period, late 18th to mid-19th century CE. This netsuke, made of African ivory, shows a tiger in the Chinese style with her cub nestled underneath her chin. The figure is carved in great detail and would be perfect for a feline lover! Size: 1.2" L x 1.5" W x 1.25" H (3 cm x 3.8 cm x 3.2 cm).

The netsuke is an example of the art of everyday objects. They are small sculptures designed to be worn so that objects could be suspended from the traditional sash (obi) that wraps around the kimono. They were used to carry purses, smoking accoutrement, and inro, "seal baskets", which held seals and medicines. The netsuke, made with two holes through it, was used as a toggle to stop the cord on which those items were suspended.

Provenance: Estate of Paul & Louise Bernheimer, acquired prior to January 18, 1990; made prior to February 26, 1976 in accordance with Federal law.

All items legal to buy/sell under U.S. Statute covering cultural patrimony Code 2600, CHAPTER 14, and are guaranteed to be as described or your money back.
