* Kiseruzutsu made of deer antler, decorated in light relief with a Chinese legend. Two men stand under a pine tree by the sea. One, richly dressed, sits on a rock, while the other, of low extraction, kneels before him, holding out a gift wrapped in knotted textile. A himotoshi is placed in one of the branches of the pine tree, allowing the sagemono cord to slide down. Signed Haruya (Yoya or Haruchika) Japan, Edo period, 19th century L. 20.5 cm - W. 5 cm
