A Japanese Carved Ivory Tanto Dagger & Scabbard. Slightly curved 11inch cutting edge blade. The scabbard and handle finely carved and engraved with ladies and children within floral borders, Meiji period (1868-1912).

The carvings are believed to depict actual individuals from that period or earlier. The detailed faces in the carvings remain clear and can still evoke the emotions of that time and place.
