Figurine - Japanese monk/devil holding bell - Bronze

Fantastic Japanese statuette from the second half of the 19th century, made entirely of bronze.

Depict a monk or a demon holding a bowl of offerings.

Very detailed and decorated, it is structurally impeccable, very solid, just noting a break in a decorative part marked in the photos, which can be restored with a simple weld/repair to look like new, but I leave that decision to the buyer to resolve as they see fit.

A rare piece, large in size, very beautiful and full of history.
