[QUOTE="Dory64, post: 4384957, member: 17558"]Hi - the 'handle' is approx 4cm long and can be held, but quite small. Each 'bell' not including the handle is about 3x3cm. There is nothing inside them, they only rattle against each other. Agreed, they don't look like the usual type of netsuke, but they as they are sculptural in form and very tactile, so thought they might be something that was handled a lot. The carving reminds me of those carved walnuts that I think are Japanese[/QUOTE]
