Antique Japanese Netsuke Figure Monk

This signed Antique Japanese Netsuke Figure depicts a monk. Originating from Japan, this intricate sculpture showcases the detailed craftsmanship and artistic flair of Japanese artisans. The Netsuke form, a decorative accessory mounted on a hanging cord or shrine ornament, adds cultural significance to this piece, making it a valuable and unique addition to any collection of Asian antiques. Note: an insert was added many years ago so that the Netsuke could be used as a finial.
