<p>[QUOTE="The Nailhunter, post: 2854751, member: 16753"]I bought this Snake Netsuke at a Gem and Mineral Show in the early 80's. At the time I was told it was Old and Ivory <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" /> I had no idea what a Netsuke was at that time, I just like Snakes. It probably needs some cleaning. I do not believe it is signed, but I do notice there is some light engraving about 1/2 inch from the right hole. I have not checked to see if it is Ivory. I am hoping someone might have some insight as to the age of this piece.[ATTACH=full]283145[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]283145[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]283146[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]283147[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
