Hello,

A friend of mine was wondering about these pieces she has. Any help is appreciated. She says the vases are really quality pieces. Thanks for the help.

All are very new tourist-trade pieces. The "ivory" is not a netsuke, but an Okimono and broken.

Well.... I'm not sure all shown pieces are new. The mark shown is the mark of Fukagawa and reads "Fuka gawa sei" in this form the mark was used around 1900-1920.

Regards,

Arjan
