A new title on the intricate skill of creating Japanese netsuke, traditionally created for proactical reasons (to secure a valuables pouch to the sash of Japanese garments), yet now highly collectible works of art. Concise, step-by-step instructions are accompanied by numberous color photographs taking the reader through a wide range of projects.

In The Art of Carving Netsuke, author and Chairman of the British Woodcarvers Association, Peter Benson, will inspire carvers of all abilities, from the relative beginner to the experienced and dedicated carver to create their own superb, miniature carvings reflecting Japanese tradition.
