A WOOD NETSUKE OF A COCKEREL ON A WAR DRUMUnsignedJapan, mid-19th century, Edo period (1615-1868)The rooster with carefully incised wings, plumage, and tail, finely stippled comb and wattle, and dark inlaid eyes, seated on a war drum of circular form with metal-inlaid studs to the sides and well carved wood grain, the underside with a seven-character inscription and a small himotoshi, the other larger himotoshi found on the side of the drum. The top of the drum with a single character 華 Ka (Hana).DIAMETER 3.5 cmCondition: Good condition with minor wear, few minuscule nicks, possibly some replacements to inlays.Provenance: A private collection in the United States, assembled between the 1990s and 2010s.The inscription to the underside of the netsuke reads Kanko koke fukaku tori odoro kanu and can be translated as, 'A bird is not frightened by the sound of a drum and the moss growing thick'. This is a direct quote from the Wakan Roei Shu anthology, compiled by Fujiwara no Kinto ca. 1013. A cockerel perched atop a barrel drum is a symbol of peace under a good ruler. It is based on a Chinese story; such drums were traditionally used in ancient China to warn the approach of enemy forces. However in peace times they were not used and birds roosted upon the moss-gathered drums.Auction comparison:Compare a related netsuke depicting a cock and hen on a war drum by Masatami, also with studs to the sides, with a dragon design to the underside instead of the inscription seen on the present lot, at Bonhams, The Julius and Arlette Katchen Collection of Fine Netsuke Part I, 8 November 2016, London, lot 107 (sold for GBP 3,500).
