Okimono :

An okimono may be a small Japanese carving , similar to, but larger than netsuke. Unlike netsuke, which have a specific purpose, okimono are purely decorative and are displayed in the Tokonoma. An okimono can be made out of wood, ceramic or metal. Okimono are normally not larger than a few centimeters. They depict all sorts of animals, mythological beasts, humans, gods, fruit, vegetables and objects, sometimes combined with each other, in all sorts of positions. Sometimes a scene is portrayed as well, either a daily scene or from a story .

History :

Perhaps the most fascinating facet of Japanese fashion history is the ways in which even the most practical aspects of clothing were given an artistic twist. A striking example of this attention to detail can be seen in the small but beautiful netsuke. This is an everyday object which was born of practical necessity, but soon became a highly respected art form in Edo Japan. Today, Japanese netsuke are still studied and admired by artists, historians, and lovers of fashion the world over. Okimono Figures Netsuke   根付    Netsuke  -  are miniature sculptures that were invented in 17th-century Japan  to serve a practical function (the two Japanese characters netsuke mean "root" and "to attach"). Traditional Japanese garments—robes called Kos ode  and kimono—had no pockets; however, men who wore them needed a place to store their personal belongings, such as pipes, tobacco, money, seals, or medicines. Their solution was to place such objects in containers (called Sagemont) hung by cords from the robes' sashes (obi). The containers may have been pouches or small woven baskets, but the most popular were beautifully crafted boxes (inrō), which were held shut by ojime, which were sliding beads on cords. Whatever the form of the container, the fastener that secured the cord at the top of the sash was a carved, button-like toggle called a netsuke. Netsuke , like the inrō and ojime, evolved over time from being strictly utilitarian into objects of great artistic merit and an expression of extraordinary craftsmanship. Such objects have a long history reflecting the important aspects of Japanese folklore and life. Netsuke production was most popular during the Edo period in Japan, around 1615–1868. Today, the art lives on, and some modern works can command high prices in the UK, Europe, the USA, Japan and elsewhere. . _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ SAVE MONEY:  With combined shipping on multiple item purchases.
