Netsuke


I am still reading 'The Hare with Amber Eyes', and really enjoying it. I thought I would post a photo or two of my own wooden netsuke rabbit (bought off eBay.) He has a sweet expression and can either sit up on his hind legs or down on all fours - on his tiptoes! He is about 2 inches/5 centimetres long. There is a signature on the base, but Chris and I don't think he is that old. Still, I don't mind at all - how could I when he is so lovely?
Incidentally, my photos above aren't as good as the ones on eBay - I think I would need a better camera for close ups than my 'point and click' Kodak, but for general photos, the Kodak does a really good job.
