How
can I be sure that a fine unsigned netsuke is worth the price?
While a signature provides a certain degree of assurance, this documentation may
tell us nothing about the prominence or skill of the particular artist in his
time. The great netsuke carver Yoshimura Shuzan never signed his works, and since
the genuineness of a netsuke signature is often difficult to determine with certainty,
it follows that collecting for intrinsic value rather than depending on signatures
alone is the best way to build a truly superb collection. The last word on this
subject is the fact that an unsigned netsuke was recently sold at Sotheby’s for
$30,000. MORE
