Removing Hair Pin
Signature: Hoyuki, Circa: late 19th Century

Condition: minor usage worn, oa. very good!

A rare, well executed poly-chrome netsuke, depicts an apprentice geisha in the midst of removing her hair pin. Her feminine movements are skillfully rendered in the folds of material, as is her hair, finely carved kanzashi stuck through to keep its shape together. A red nagajubon, an indication of her apprentice rank, beautifully trims the intricately patterned kimono; a knot of obi softly drooping from the middle of her back. The geisha raises her hand in slight embarrassment, gracefully lifting the focus of the piece from her face to the whole of her appearance. Signed in red coral reserve with some minor wear and discoloration on the front. Otherwise in very good condition.
