7-06. A truly superb 19th Century Japanese okimono, carved with Tokyo School skill, of a dancing Oni, flailing a large fan, made of a leaf, over his back. I’ve never seen a finer rendering of an Oni, done with meticulous adherence to the legends of the Oni. He has the proper 2 claw-toed feet and 3 claw fingers. The details to teeth and fangs are incredible. He has inlaid black eyes and jeweled necklace, studded with apparent tiny semi-precious stones. This would be a fabulous addition to any collection, and can only appreciate. 7” tall, in superb condition.
Price: $2,495 |

9-01 – A fine, exceptionally large (14.5") Meiji period okimono, all carved from a single piece of elephant tusk. She is a dancing Geisha, wearing a conical tete-eboshi hat and playing a drum. Beautifully decorated and polychromed with lots of details to her robes. There are a few smooth age lines, but the piece is in excellent overall condition. A recent Tokyo
School piece this size sold for nearly $20,000, so this is a great opportunity at a very low price. A wonderful addition (or gift!) to any collection. Price: $2,995
