Product Description

This finely hand-carved antique Japanese ivory netsuke features Jurojin, the God of Longevity, holding a symbolic tool. Standing at 5cm, Jurojin is depicted with a serene expression, wearing traditional robes accented in muted colors. The netsuke is signed by the artist, enhancing its authenticity and appeal to collectors of Japanese art.

A detailed and expressive piece, it embodies the cultural significance of Jurojin, revered for wisdom and long life.

Netsuke were practical yet artistic toggles used in Japan during the Edo and Meiji periods to secure items to a kimono sash. Figures of Jurojin were popular as they represented longevity, wisdom, and good fortune.
