Wonderful little Japanese okimono / netsuke. Ball-shaped and humorous in nature, the carving depicts two toads and a snake climbing over a pumpkin. The frogs are possibly trying to escape from the serpent who is coiling its way through the vegetable, with its head peeping out from inside.

As can be seen from the photos, the material is bone, with no restrictions on sale or postage.
