In traditional Japanese dress, the Inro box hung from the Obi (belt) of the Kimono, on a double cord. At the top of the cord, a large carving called a Netsuke (pronounced nets-kay) acted as a toggle to anchor the Inro. Most of our Netsuke have authentic double-holes in the base, so when strung on a necklace they will hang upsidedown. They range in size from 1 ½ to 2 inches. Each individually handcarved in Boxwood.
