Title: Japanese faux ivory
Post by: jerryk on August 07, 2013, 08:04:14 AM

Hi all, does anyone have any ideas on japanese carvings? I found this is at a yard sale for 3.00 dollars. It's not ivory but resin.  I took this to a Japanese Antiques store in NYC she told it is japanese made and resin. A depiction of an actor or comedian. She could not give me any further info. At least she did tell me it's not chinese made but from japan. I know tons on ebay but i thought maybe someone here would be a little more familiar with these. Thanks again for any info of and height is around 4 inches
