Superb Japanese Ivorine Okimono Of An Entertainer Meiji Period

Japanese Ivorine
Okimono Of An Entertainer
Meiji Period 1868-1912
The man adoringly holding onto his pet monkey – the monkey dressed in a hat reaching over his shoulder for some food
On Plinth
Not signed
Measuring 28cm on base 25cm without
Condition is excellent with a few light age related cracks- the base I feel is meant to be stressed like the earth he walks on
There are a few light cracks to his head and back area – mentioned to be accurate .
His  patination is lovely
