In Japan, we had worn traditional costume Kimono, which has no pocket, as a daily cloth before 
European cloths were introduced us.

When we have  to carry something like small money, tissue paper, tobacco, medicine and etc, we put into Sagemono
like porch, Tobacco case or Inro (Japanese portable 
medicine case), and hang on the belt with Netsuke. 
It helps to keep them staying on the belt.

When we use the Sagemono without Netsuke, they would drop down from the belt easily.

 Our Netsuke collection consists of high quality pieces from 18-20th century. All these netsukes are not a simple sculpture but it tells a daily life story with humor, Japanese myth,etc. 

 Ojime is a sliding bead set between Inro and Netsuke, the function of Ojime is tightening to close Inro. Many different kinds of material, such as Ivory, Stag-antler, Wood, Lacquer, Metal, Semi-precious stones, Cloisonné and porcelain etc. are used to produce. It is a small object but an important piece and also decorated with many details. Without Ojime, Inro will be opened easily.  

 Our Cloisonne collection consists of high quality pieces from 19-20th century.
