A Japanese Carved Ivory Netsuke, Taishō era Meiji (1868-1912) or Taisho (1912-1926)

A Japanese Carved Ivory Netsuke, Taishō era Meiji (1868-1912) or Taisho (1912-1926)An ivory netsuke carved as a ripe persimmon (kaki), naturalistically rendered and surmounted by a beetle with detailed legs and segmented body. The motif is emblematic of late summer to autumn, combining the persimmon (symbol of maturity and harvest), with the beetle, representing vitality and the persistence of life within natures cycles. Executed by the artist with realism and subtle wit in mind, the composition reflects Edo period aesthetic values
