The Romance
of the Nctsuke

The netsuke is one of the most
characteristic products of Japanese
art. IL is an ornamental toggle. or
button, carved out of wood or ivory,
and attached to the girdle as a
means of suspending pipes. tobacco
pouches, medicine boxes, seats. etc,
which the Japanese were formerly
fond Of Carrying about with them.
II seems TO have originated in the
18th century, when the use of to-
bacco became common in Japan
The Japanese genius for delicate
ornamentation found a rich field
in developing this form of personal
adornment. and the art was carried
so far that il has been said that
"of all the art objects found in
Japan the netsuke is perhaps the
most essentially Japanese"
Netsukes are still made in Japan.
but the manufacture is now largely
for sale 10 collectors Notwithstand-
ing the small scale of the work the
objects represented on the netsuke
often consist OF landscape views,
trees. flowers. etc. all executed with
exquisite skill and taste. The articles
attached TO or suspended from the
netsuke we're also beautifully carv-
ed and ornamented. among the finest
OF these being the laTo or medicine
box, which usually has the shape OF
a small fiattened cylinder.
In reading the history Of the net
suke IL is very curious 10 observe
l.
IL was seized upon by the artistic
instinct of the Japanese as an add
tional means for the expression. OF
the love of ornamental forms. The
skill in fine carving was generations
old. and had been exercised on many
other objects. such as sword hilts
and guards. dagger handles. and
other small articles. but now il
spread in a new direction.
And. at the same time. with thi.
I fresh development the art found
