This miniature masterpiece is called a netsuke—a button-like toggle worn for centuries on Japanese kimono. The most highly prized designs were carved with elaborately detailed patterns or evocative imagery. What seems to be a simple gourd, the netsuke opens to reveal a couple in an erotic embrace, along with a detailed carving of genitalia.

What They're Saying

Andrea Goldman | Andrea Goldman Design

“Over the years, I’ve incorporated many pieces from PAGODA RED into my designs. Not only can they balance new furnishings (and often new construction) by feeling more established, but the pieces emanate a sense of rich history, often leaving you wondering where they were in a previous life. These beautiful pieces carefully hand-selected by the team at PAGODA RED, coupled with their unbelievable customer service, make them a must-have for any home.”
