Posted By: Kay Sat, Apr 29, 2017 IP: 71.114.48.203
Hi,

It's been a while since I've been on this site. Can someone please help me identify the artist, period, value, etc. of this beautiful netsuke piece?

Thank you!!!!!

Reads Ôshô' (王将). Ôshô is the King General in Japanese chess (将棋 - shôgi). The base is shaped as a wedge-shaped piece of the shôgi game.

I suppose that netsuke specialists could help you further.

Guy.
