? A FINE KURUMI (WALNUT) NETSUKE DEPICTING A HARE PRANCING OVER WAVES

Unsigned
Japan, 19th century, Edo period (1615-1868)

The walnut carved to one side with a prancing hare backed by a wave patterned ground, the reverse with a central himotoshi enclosed by a large kiku blossom on a wavy ground, the lower section with another large himotoshi.

HEIGHT 3.2 cm

Condition: Very good condition with minor wear and typical natural imperfections.

The playful motif refers to the story of inaba no shirousagi (The White Hare of Inaba), from the Records of Ancient Matters (Kojiki, ca. 710). According to this legend, a white rabbit crossed the ocean from Okino Island to the mainland at Inaba by using the backs of sharks as stepping stones and in doing so appeared to be running over the tops of the waves. This text was later referenced in the Noh play Chikubushima (Chikubushima Island), which describes the moon’s reflection in Lake Biwa as a rabbit (a legendary inhabitant of the moon) running over the waves.



13% VAT will be added to the hammer price additional to the buyer's premium - only for buyers within the EU.
