Details follow:
·
Appears to be a vintage item of hand carved horn but I was unable to verify its age

Part of a collection of INRO from the Estate of a woman who lived in Japan in the late ‘1980s – early ‘90s (apparently she had quite a collection of Pan Pacific Region antiques and vintage items)
·
Double ended box (ojime? Sagemono?) measures about 2-1/2” x 1-5/8” x 1”
·
Detail as shown in photos; carvings of turtles and fish as shown
