The Quiet Wood - Pewter Woodland Netsuke Set
Three small animals cast in solid pewter — a crouching rabbit with ears laid back, a squirrel holding its find in both paws, and a hedgehog curled nearly into a ball. Each fits in the hollow of a palm, with real weight for its size and detail down to the quills and the fur of the tail. They're made in the spirit of Japanese netsuke: tiny carved companions once worn on a kimono sash, meant to be handled, pocketed, and kept close.
Together they read like a small fable — the rabbit for luck and new beginnings, the squirrel for foresight, the hedgehog for quiet resilience. Cast, polished, and finished by hand in a family pewter workshop in Middlebury, Vermont, and packed in a muslin pouch so they arrive ready to give. For the desk, the bookshelf, the windowsill — or the person who loves a pocket-sized talisman.
