This is a Kutani-yaki Kara-jishi (Chinese guardian lion). I bought it in Kutani several decades ago, making it an antique figurine. Height: Approximately 29 cm Width: Approximately 28 cm It's a large, 9-sun (approximately 27 cm) tall, left-facing, white lion riding a ball. It has a dignified face. Due to its age, there is some slight discoloration. Please refrain from purchasing if you are overly concerned about this. Please consider purchasing if you understand that this is a used, antique item. Thank you for your consideration.
