I believe the answer is:

netsuke

(Other definitions for netsuke that I've seen before include "carved ornament from the East" , "Small carved object on a Japanese costume" , "Button-like ornament on a kimono sash - sue Kent (anag)" , "Carved Japanese toggle" , "Japanese carving" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
