RASHŌMON - art made to wear and display....
Small Oni is crying on the Big Oni's hand which was cut by Samurai, Watanabe no Tsuna. The Bangle is carved out from the same piece of antler and is free to move. Small Oni is holding Juzu = beads for prayer.
This is a magnificent netsuke carving, crafted by one of New Zealand's finest carvers in this art form.
RASHŌMON is hand crafted from a single tine of Deer antler. Fumio has used the densest and hardest part of the antler and has created a little work of art.
RASHŌMON is a complex work, crafted with a high degree of artistry and skill and will be a piece for collectors who appreciate this ancient art form.
Take a close look at the photos, and the video to appreciate the detail of this piece.
We asked Fumio to finish this so that it can be worn.
