18th century ivory Dutchman netsuke

The flavor of sticky caramel of the olden days is irresistible. Detailed engravings are still preserved beautifully within the relaxed form. In the 18th century where engraving had just started, this person's nose might have been higher than it should be but the edges have disappeared and looked more Japanese-like due to practice over the years. However he is a handsome man without doubt. It looks like the cord could be strung through the back to the thigh.
