Mammoth Ivory Netsuke - TWO MAN DRINKING AND PLAYING

Mammoth Ivory Netsuke of two men drinking sake & dancing. Well its hard to say if this two Japanese are dancing or they are in a middle of a fight – by looking on their faces its look like they are having a fight & they are looking cruel as well – especially the guy with the moustache. He have a tattoo on his arm as well, it's just amazing how the Master carver can make this tiny piece of art – with such of inspiration. How this tiny sculpture can say so much. Thinking the only thing that the netsuke was made for is to hold held the Inro( a small container that used to keep tobacco & small change).
This over whelming mammoth ivory netsuke is hand carved & made out of high quality of Mammoth ivory tusk - from the extinct woolly mammoth– that roamed the earth before 10,000 – 40,000 years ago.
