Superb hand carved genuine pre-ban ivory netsuke or pendant depicts a maiden seated on an ornate chair or throne. The carving is extremely detailed and is highlighted by scrimshaw work. The pendant is exceptionally large and makes an excellent "statement" necklace when strung on silk or an intricate chain. Heirloom quality, sure to be treasured for a lifetime!

Condition: Excellent vintage condition with no chips, cracks or damage to note. Crisp hand-carved detail with a warm patina. The Schreger lines are quite evident (also known as "cross-hatching").

**A Note About Elephant Ivory...Ownership, sales, purchase & shipping of "estate ivory"...that which was harvested and entered the United States prior to 1989...is legal. In 1976, regulatory laws from the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES) regarding Elephant ivory were put into place and only ivory from licensed game reserves who followed these mandates was allowed into the US. In 1989, the importation, sale & purchases of African elephant ivory was banned internationally.
