Carvings
As you will see, my collection consists in large part, of carvings. Many were made in recent years, by highly skilled craftsmen who work in ivory, mammoth ivory, cattle bone, hippopotamus tooth, and wood.

Many depict scenes from Chinese sex manuals or pillow books, as well as from Chinese classical texts. So, even if the carving is done contemporaneously, the material and the source of inspiration is from days past.

Some of the pieces may be available for sale, but if you want further details, please email us.
