Cow Netsuke

A netsuke is a miniature sculpture originating in 17th century Japan, and these adorable cast-pewter collectible animal figurines are the Danforth Pewter twist on netsukes. Start a collection surprise a friend, add to your windowsill—there's no limit to what you can do with these adorable little creatures. Many people love cows because of their sweet and docile nature, or because they symbolize life's continuance, motherhood, and a nurturing soul. Others love cows because of their association with an idyllic countryside, living off the land, farms, and a peaceful lifestyle. Like all our netsukes, the Cow is handcrafted in our Middlebury workshop from solid pewter.
