This meant that with the changing of seasons the length of these temporal hours varied. Day hours in the summertime were longer than the day hours in the winter. With this system to show the correct time, the numerals on the dial ideally needed to be adjusted every fourteen days. The hours or toki were each divided into tenths bu with the mid way or Shokuru marked with a baton. The hours were counted backwards and named after zodiacal animals. Consequently the current lot is annotated with two repeating sets of six numerals starting with the sixth hour denoting either the hour of the Hare (dawn) or Cock (sunset) and counts downwards through two sequences before clock needs to be rewound.Condition Report: The movement is in clean working condition with the only noticeable fault being a small section missing from the front apron for the pendulum pivot. The strike train is also in clean working condition. The case is in fine condition with no visible faults although there is some slight tarnishing to the vertical chapter scale. Overall the timepiece is a fine quality faithful replica with detailing both in the movement and the case very similar to that of the originals. There is a winding key present with the clock. Condition Report Disclaimer

HIDARI ISSAN: A FINE WOOD NETSUKE OF GENTOKU By Hidari Issan, signed Hidari Issan 左一山Japan, Edo (Tokyo), c. 1850, Edo period (1615-1868)Published: Bandini, Rosemary (2020) The Larry Caplan Collection of Japanese Netsuke, pp. 34-35, no. 15.Gentoku, one of the three heroes of the Han dynasty, is seated on a low Chinese stool, his head bowed in concentration as he studies a scroll. One sleeve is pulled back over his shoulder revealing a pauldron and his soft robes are hitched up at one knee to show feather-edged leg armor. The stool is standing on a tiger skin pelt and Gentoku’s right leg is resting on the unfortunate animal’s head. Himotoshi through the tiger skin pelt and signed HIDARI ISSAN.HEIGHT 3.9 cmCondition: Very good condition, only one tiny chip to edge of the tied bow on the head.Provenance: Ex-collection Larry Caplan, Toronto.According to notes by Raymond Bushell in reply to enquiries by Larry Caplan (reproduced by Rosemary Bandini in Euronetsuke journal no. 54.) Hidari Issan moved to Tokyo around 1850 devoting himself to carving and the study of literature. From the style of this piece, which immediately reminds one of Tokyo carvers such as Tokoku or Jugyoku, it is evident that Hidari Issan must have carved this piece during this time.
