This piece features a cheerful figure clutching a coin, symbolizing prosperity and good fortune, with delicate incised bamboo or floral motifs on the sides. The warm patina and natural age wear of the bone material are consistent with 19th-century Japanese carving. The Ojime bead is 2.8” length and 1.6” width. See less
