Ox Horn Mokugyo Netsuke

This unusual 19th century horn netsuke exhibits a compelling color tonality: gradiated amber melds into moments of warm saffron, with hits of deeper browns. The motif is unusual, a strongly rendered ornamental bullhead set in a backdrop pattern of subtle geometrical cross-hatching. This netsuke is artfully shaped into the form of a mokugyo. A traditional percussion instrument of Chinese origins, the mokugyo is used in meditation rituals, particularly those in the tradition of Mayahana and Zen Buddhism. The netsuke has two symmetrical himotoshi on the bottom and is in good condition.
