A frog on a lotus leaf with a little crab hiding inside. When you push or pull the cord the crab moves... Fumio Noguchi is the master behind this one of a kind pendant.
Hand Carved in Boars Tusk (the frog and leaf), Deer Antler (crab), Buffalo Horn (eyes) with Abalone Shell (Paua). This little piece is an example of exceptional creative and artistic carving.
HIDE AND SEEK is carved in netsuke style and would make a gorgeous little sculptural piece to view and handle - it is very robust and won't mind being held. It is on an adjustable cord so you can wear it as a pendant. The crab can be pulled all the way out allowing you to wear just the crab as a pendant and have the frog on the lotus as a display piece. Whatever you choose, you ultimately have two pieces in one - we think that's pretty fab!
Take a close look at the photos and the very brief video to appreciate Fumio's skill. In all his art, he has paid an enormous attention to detail. This sets his work apart, producing gorgeous art to wear.
We will supply this with an adjustable beige cord and packaged in a woven kete pouch.
