So I got this set from a friend. Not sure how old they are? Or the material I think possibly Ivory maybe jade hand painted in very good condition. I think they are snuff men one of the 7 has a string attached floss? 7 of the men their heads come off with a pick. One man last shown does not have a removable head. These were originally purchased by my friend in the 60s in Japan. Approx 2 inches tall Any offers of information on these guys would be appreciated.

@bobobourjeosise so I'm not 100 percent sure. the picks that come out of each man appears to be a jade or stone like the man himself. the one man that has the attached pick is maybe wood or stone its difficult to tell. I haven't had any success finding someone to actually appraise it or accurately describe it.

one guy is the hangman, hence the term snuff men. the rest have removable heads and spines to keep your powder dry.

Hi! The last figure appears to be a “Netsuke” (identified by the two holes it has.) The others look like snuff bottles.
