Superb Old Okimono Fisherman 12" Bone Carved Very Collectable Display Piece A Very Unusual 12"Tall Okimono Fisherman Hand Carved Ox Bone A superb Okimono standing about a foot (32cm) tall on his base, he is clutching a caught fish in his left hand, and presumably once had a rod in his right. He is in very good condition overall, although there is a chip on each ankle, it would be a straight forward repair in the right hands. His carving is quite detailed in a charming naive way and, because of his size he is made from many pieces, assembled and then with expert hands he was then carved into the fine up-standing gent you see here, many hours of a skilled craftsmans handwork has gone into creating this fisherman. He is a happy looking chap, and would be an excellent conversation piece to add to any collection. Base measures 3.75 inches in diameter, and in total he is 12.5 inches tall, and weighs very close to 900 grams Thank you for your interest, UK Sale Only supreme supremewidgets supremeauctiononlinesoftware.widgets.GalleryBasic.swf supremewidgets supremeauctiononlinesoftware.widgets.FeedbackWidgetBasic.swf
