Boxwood Okimono of a Yamabushi

Here is wonderfully carved boxwood okimono of a yamabushi (itinerant priest) carrying a tray of basho leaves. Finely carved details highlight the superb treatment of the figure and naturalistic rendering of the basket and plants. This okimono is in excellent condition with no cracks, damage or restoration. Height: 11" Meiji Period, Japan
