The netsuke is intricately detailed, with the man and woman both wearing traditional Japanese clothing and the woman wearing a long, flowing dress. The man is holding a staff in one hand and a scroll in the other, while the woman is holding an object in her hands. The ivory is a warm, golden-brown color, and the background is a bright white.
