Ito Hirotoshi’s stone sculptures are meant to delight and amuse. His well-practiced carving skills get a workout combining everyday, mundane items in new and unusual ways to create sculptures that demand a second look. If you laugh, if you reach out to touch with a youthful giggle or squeal, if you walk away smiling and uplifted by his clever interpretation, then his work is done.

The teeth crack me up!
But I’d like to own the ones with zippers and seashells!
I am with Sherry, I love the teeth one.
He has a whole series of teeth sculptures!
As my son would say, OMG!! ROFLOL!
The teeth sculpture is the most quirky, and freaky! Does anyone know the prices of Hirotoshi’s pieces?
