Netsuke are intricate miniature carvings that functioned as toggles to secure personal items to a kimono, while the obi is the decorative sash that cinches the kimono. Both evolved from simple functional objects into highly symbolic and artistic elements of Japanese culture, reflecting personal status, taste, and storytelling, particularly during the Edo period (1603–1868) illustrated in the exhibit.
