An interesting subject matter that shows early European influence in style of attire in a traditional farming gathering task - but the facial expression is distinctly Japanese. A signature is noted on the base rear of the piece and a closeup picture is in the picture set. For ease of shipping the outstretched arm unscrews from the figure.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLate Taisho | early Showa era c.1920\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eApprox 24.5cms (9 1\/2\") tall \u003cbr\u003eApprox 16.5cms (6 1\/2) wide \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn excellent condition - a superb piece\u003cbr\u003eSome age lines in the Ivory - which is commensurate with age\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout Ivory:\u003c\/strong\u003e Australia has had a \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan role=\"tooltip\" tabindex=\"0\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"c5aZPb\" role=\"button\" tabindex=\"0\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"JPfdse\"\u003eban on ivory\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eimports since 1990\u003c\/strong\u003e, however it remains legal to buy and sell ivory items domestically.
