Artist? bamboo brush pot

Thank you!

I was originally thinking it was a Qianlong Chinese brush pot as it is footed and the design is carved with such detail.

But, Meiji / Taisho era carvings are exceptional, too. I just didn't realize that brush pots were part of their art forms (netsuke,inro, sagemono, okimono, etc).

With your help with the artist name, I was able to find another example of Ito Tesseki's work, a lotus leaf form tray. Spot on match.

Many thanks!
