Netsuke are small decorative sculptures that typically serve a practical function.  For instance, historically they were often used as latches or fasteners to secure a [[pouch]] to the [[objjime]] rope worn around the [[obi]] on a [[kimono]] or [[yukata]]. They are also often worn to serve a completely decorative purpose. In modern times, they are sometimes used as [[cellphone charm]]s or [[cellphone strap|straps]]
