Hi, I your piece looks more like a modern pendant to me than a netsuke, likely made in China, not Japan. If you want to be sure, try to post it here: http://netsuke.websitetoolbox.com .

Thanks for that i tend to agree as I have genuine Netsuke and as this came from a box of house clearance stuff at a car boot I did not really equate it to being new ish or perhaps very old...sort of inbetween if you get my drift. It was just seeing Barry with it round his neck that made me think it may be collectable.
