This contemporary example is mounted on an elevated wooden base.<\/p>\n<p>Chinese innovations in ink, block printing and movable type helped spread the written word around the globe. Each miniature block included in this set was hand-carved with care. Used at the turn of the 20th century, each is a unique and wonderful curiosity, and a monument to the power of the written word.<\/p>\n<p>A brush pot or bitong, such as this one, was traditionally used to hold the calligraphy brushes of scholars. This beautiful example is carved from zitan, a highly-prized rare, slow-growing hardwood. Mother of pearl and soapstone inlays are shaped into decorative prune branches. It would make a stunning addition to a desktop, vanity or coffee table.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>The Rebel\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Though shopping for the iconoclasts on our list can be challenging at times, it can also be a great deal of fun.

These works adorned the walls of a tattoo parlor in the 1930\u2019s and 40\u2019s and are wildly collectible today.<\/p>\n<p>In 17th-century Japan, kimono-clad men wore small pouches attached to their sashes by button-like fasteners known as netsuke. Although practical in purpose, netsukes were exquisitely carved of ivory or wood. Perhaps reserved for more intimate occasions, the inside of this strawberry netsuke contains an erotic scene.<\/p>\n<p>To create this one-of-a-kind necklace, one of the most ephemeral natural objects was preserved for all time. This genuine spiral orb spider web was highlighted in fine metallic coating, and protected by beveled glass. Since no web can ever be precisely duplicated, no two such necklaces will ever be quite alike.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>The Timeless Beauty<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>With a taste for the sophisticated and ethereal, this person has an eye for anything uniquely fine and masterfully made.
