One kanji help

[kissakai]

Hi

Can you help with the first kanji?

This is netsuke I bought at the weekend which I believe is modern but was drawn by the expressive face

I assume the 2nd kanji is yama. I tried the kanji count but wasn't sure of the total stokes so I looked at counts 4 to 6 but without success

Maybe 右山 Uyama. ?? John

玉山 (Gyokuzan), maybe.

[Bugyotsuji]

Yes, 玉山, but 'carved' (probably dremeled) in a modern Chinese workshop to look like Japanese Gyokuzan.

 

Little market value, but fun to roll around in your hand or actually wear as no worries about damage.
