Early-Century Japanese Handcarved Resin Rabbit Netsuke Signed Miniature A672

This exceptional handcarved resin netsuke portrays a rabbit seated upright in a moment of alert curiosity — ears perked, paws lifted, and eyes full of expression. The artist skillfully shaped each fur line with care, giving the figure warmth and lifelike character. A softly aged finish enhances the contours and brings out subtle depth, making the carving feel alive from every angle.

On the underside, the piece includes the traditional himotoshi cord holes and a carved signature, honoring authentic Japanese netsuke craftsmanship. Compact and beautifully weighted at 8.7 g, it displays perfectly in a cabinet or on a scholar’s desk. A charming and meaningful addition for collectors of netsuke, animal motifs, or artisanal miniature sculpture — especially those who appreciate handcrafted detail and cultural artistry.
