Komin - Wood Daruma netsuke
Edo (Tokyo), circa 1860
Daruma stretches his arms above his head and yawns langorously, his eyes stretched down and brow wrinkled in the doleful manner of a man who is not yet ready to be disturbed. He wears gilt metal earrings and bracelets on each wrist, one himotoshi ringed in green-stained stag antler.
