A BONTEBOK HORN CARVING, OKIMONO 20TH CENTURY Carved as a stylised tanuki resting in a hollow tree stump, the racoon dog depicted in the light creamy material with its eyes shut and its paws visible underneath, the darker portion of the material with natural honey-coloured striations imitating the surface of the wood, signed with a small monogram C.H. to the back for Clive Hallam, 7.8cm. Clive Hallam is a contemporary British artist and a regular lecturer at conventions of the International Netsuke Society. His works feature a large variety of materials and subjects and his most famous netsuke may be a depiction of a snail on a can of coca cola, a contemporary take on the traditional snail on a bucket subject (see lot 837).
