拍品描述
A RARE IRON AND ANTLER KAGAMIBUTA WITH BUDDHIST SYMBOLS

Unsigned
Japan, Tokyo, Asakusa district, second half of 19th century

An attractive mixed material kagamibuta netsuke depicting a pensive Daruma on the iron lid, the image worked in relief with gold takazogan and hirazogan highlights. The antler bowl is very finely carved with a design of a hossu (Buddhist flywhisk) encircling the iron lid, the back with a densely carved image of a frog emerging beneath a lotus leaf, and further leaves, flowers, and buds, a small snail carved to one side. The himotoshi is encircled by a floral medallion, the cord attachment is underneath the iron disc.

DIAMETER 3.7 cm

Condition: Excellent condition.

While the frog and lotus design is certainly reminiscent of Ishikawa Rensai's work (see Auction comparison) it lacks the sublime finish which characterizes Rensai's work. The earthy quality of the netsuke brings to mind Ozaki Kokusai, who was known to create bowls for and collaborate with the kagamibuta metal artists. For a selection of kagamibuta netsuke by Kokusai see Sydney L. Moss Ltd. (2016) Kokusai the Genius: and Stag-antler Carving in Japan, vol. II, pp. 178-185, nos. 173-178.

Auction comparison:
Compare the antler bowl to an antler netsuke by Rensai at Bonhams, The Julius & Arlette Katchen Collection of Fine Netsuke Part III, 6 November 2018, London, lot 134 (sold for GBP 5,625). Also compare a related antler and mixed metal kagamibuta, by Kokusai, at Bonhams, Fine Japanese and Korean Art, 20 March 2019, New York, lot 275 (sold for USD 4,075).
