Carved Boxwood and Lacquer Netsuke of a Noh Dancer, Meiji Period, Japan
Located in Austin, TX
A fine lacquer decorated carved boxwood netsuke of a Noh dancer in a Hannya role, unsigned, Meiji period, late 19th century, Japan.
The boxwood netsuke finely carved as a kneeling Noh dancer dressed in striking geometric patterned robes. The actor holds an opened war fan behind their back in one hand, a Shinto wand slung over the shoulder in the other.

The actor wears a fierce and unearthly hannya mask...
