A SUPERB STAG ANTLER RYUSA MANJU NETSUKE OF A MOKUGYO, ATTRIBUTED TO TOKOKUAttributed to Suzuki Tokoku (1846-1913), signed with a kakihanJapan, Tokyo, Asakusa District, second half of 19th centuryThe ryusa manju netsuke consisting of two separately carved parts, the front very finely carved with a double dragon-headed mokugyo sharing a tama in their mouths, the curling manes and scales neatly incised, the reverse with a central floral himotoshi framed by openworked petals. The interior with a nyoi-scepter forming the cord attachment above a kakihan (artist's monogram).LENGTH 3.8 cmCondition: Excellent condition.Provenance: Dutch private collection.Suzuki Tokoku (1846-1913) is regarded as one of the finest netsuke carvers, distinguished by masterful use of inlay. His earlier works are in the Asakusa style of manju or ryusa type and often using fine metal inlays. It seems plausible his art name Tokoku 東谷 is derived from Kokusai 谷齋, and although Tokoku was apparently self-taught, he must have worked with Kokusai at some point in his life.Literature comparison:A similar example by Tokoku, the signature hidden within, is in Sydney L. Moss Ltd. (2016) Kokusai the Genius: and Stag-antler Carving in Japan, vol. III, pp. 182-183, no. 183.

A RARE IVORY NETSUKE OF BASHIKO SENNIN, ATTRIBUTED TO MITSUHARUAttributed to Mitsuharu, unsigned Japan, Kyoto, late 18th century, Edo period (1615-1868)Published: Barry Davies Oriental Art (1995) 100 Selected Pieces from the Netsuke Collection of Scott Meredith, no. 6.Well carved, the sennin standing and grabbing the claw of the ferocious dragon writhing above him, wearing a long flowing robe as well as leafy skirt and apron, a double-gourd attached to his belt, the dragon displaying all the signature traits of Mitsuharu with a long snout, the mouth agape revealing teeth and tongue, further detailed with two horns, funnel-shaped ears, and neatly incised scales. The back with one himotoshi, the other between the sennin's right arm and body.HEIGHT 7.3 cmCondition: Good overall condition with some wear, expected age cracks, natural imperfections to the material, few minuscule nicks. One foot is likely restored.Provenance: Dutch private collection.The subject is quite rare in netsuke art and usually misidentified as Chinnan Sennin or Rakan Handaka Sonja, who are both usually depicted with alms bowls from which they conjure the dragon. Bashiko Sennin was a healer of animals who came upon a sick dragon and remedied the dragon's ailments with acupuncture.Literature comparison:There does not appear to be any netsuke of dragons which are in fact signed Mitsuharu, however a number can be confidently attributed to the artist. See for example two dragons in International Netsuke Society Journal (Spring 2019) Vol. 39, no. 1, p. 20, nos. 25-26. Compare a closely related figure of a sennin with a dragon, also unsigned, dated early 18th century, illustrated in Davey, Neil K. (1974) Netsuke: A comprehensive study based on the M.T.
