Priced at $40.95, that is a fabulous price for The Art of Netsuke Carving! I think in some arenas the book price has multiplied from the original $125 price. Someone should grab this one if they have been waiting to find one. Sorry for the sales pitch, but even if it looks used, there is a great deal of good information to read in it.
Thanks for the tip, David.

Hi there,
I just saw that a Berlin based bookseller provides a special offer of the german classic
Albert Brockhaus : NETSUKE (Seems one has to use the search- function on that site)
Its quite reduced but still a bit costly.
- but the text of the book is english and italian. hope the information is of some use...

I recently bought the Brochaus book. I started reading and it's very interesting but not much info for carvers I'm afraid.

Hello,
for all who have 50 MB free storage space on their harddisc and have a weakness for things japanese, here you can download the complete:
Henry Joly - Legend in Japanese Art
which is a huge book on the inner meaning of japanese art work. There are a lot of netsuke, inro and metalwork of course.
Enjoy!
cheers, Karl
