Hello, I am a new member. I have come into possession of a number of Netsuke purchased by my father from market stalls and car boot sales here in the UK since the 1970's. This is one example. I have been informed that the inscription says ???Masayuki. As regards it authenticity, i'm unsure. I have seen schreger lines, denoting ivory. Just hoping it is pre 1940. Any further information would be great.
Many thanks
