In Search of Netsuke & Inro
by
George A Cohen

An important private collection consisting of 280 selected netsuke in ivory and wood together with 76 choice inro - all complete with ojime and netsuke - as well as several fine lacquer boxes, are all individually described

The connoisseur will appreciate the excellent work of several 18th century master carvers as well as that of more recent artists.

This book differs from most other studies, as it is not purely technical, although it contains useful and practical information.

In the hope of attracting new enthusiasts the author has written an entertaining account of his personal experiences in forming this collection, relating many amusing incidents as well as describing the pleasure and satisfaction to be enjoyed by those who collect these elusive miniatures of Japanese art.

This rare book (now out of print) was published in the UK by 'The Jacey Group of Companies' in 1974

ISBN 9780950410500
This reference work is now available here.

Both of these publications are valuable and beautiful reference works for the serious antique collector and for a small fee of just 25 Euros you can have unlimited access to them both.
