The Hare with Amber Eyes - Edmund De Waal

A family chronicle lasting a century and a half, starring the Ephrussi, a Jewish banking family that originated  in Odessa and became really wealthy in Vienne and Paris; and then lost almost everything due to antisemitism. A collection of netsuke (miniature Japanese sculptures) works as the backbone of the story. Nicely written.
