[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 9571599, member: 2844"]I'm with mos, these were made a few years ago, and none of them in Japan. Most of them were made on the island of Madura, Indonesia. The tortoise could be Chinese made. The mouse or rat is a little charmer. It takes years to know enough about netsuke to buy the right ones, learning the basics isn't enough. I commend you for not buying newly carved ivory though. It depresses me when people do that.[/QUOTE]
