Private Collection

A superb example of low relief carving in ivory with the exquisitely thin and delicate disk of ivory mounted on wood to give it sturdiness in use. Color is creamy white with a slightly cool cast. This little Kagamibuta is a tour-de-force in flower carving, showing a rich array of chrysanthemums in a study of overlapping flowers and leaves, as finely carved white petals spray and curl, innermost petals not yet fully opened, revealing seed clusters at the center. With additional flowers glimpsed through the topmost blossoms, this work offers a miniature vision of unending abundance and sheer beauty. Signed on reverse on inlaid mother-of-pearl "Masakawa."
