Komatsuka Nae produces many different things, including table ware decorated with funny penguins, but also... nose flutes! She is notably the creator of a funny and beautiful "japanese penguin" character, and made nose flutes representing it.

Here is an auto-portrait she made, showing her making a nose flute :

She could stop here, but she also created little nests or boxes for her hanabue, and draw mangas featuring the "Okan-khamen" character — a parrot wearing a pharaoh's suit – nose flute.
