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.
Snakes are fascinating animals often feared by people, but don’t be afraid if snake has slithered into your life. Ancient cultures believed that the snake was a symbol of life, change and longevity. As snakes shed their skin, maybe it is time for you to shed yours and start anew. Snake power can help you transform your life for the better.
We often two styles of snake; King Cobra or Coiled Snake. Cobra measures approximately 1 3/4” tall by 1 1/2” wide. Coiled Snake measures approximately 1 1/2” tall by over 1 1/2”.
