In traditional Japanese dress, the inro box hung from the obi (belt) of a kimono, on a double cord. At the top of the cord, a large carving called a netsuke (pronounced nets-kay) acted as a toggle to anchor the inro. Our netsuke have authentic double-holes in the base.
These charming and detailed pieces are hand carved out of Japanese Boxwood. The figurines make perfect gifts for yourself or a loved one. Each piece has amazing character that is sure to make people smile.
Bring home some mystery from the deep with one of our hand carved mermaids. Mermaids have always captivated people with their bewitching beauty and sensuality. Some believe that when a mermaid enters your life she can aid in bringing balance between heart and mind, inspiring you to express yourself.
We offer three different mermaids for you to choose from; Mermaid Combing Hair, Mermaid and Child or Mermaid with Pearl. Each piece ranges in size from 1 ½ to 2 inches.
You will receive the mermaid of your choice similar to the one pictured. Each piece is hand carved, so please allow for slight artistic variations.
