Description from the seller

Rare figurine carved from a root.

It depicts a seated samurai.

It should date from the turn of the 18th to the 19th century, and it is in very good structural condition, with a lovely patina.

It shows some wear from the many years it has been cleaned, handled, etc., which gives it a lot of character and authenticity.

Seller's Story

Antiques are my great passion; all the items I have on auction were found at antique fairs and antique shops mainly from the Lisbon area, but also from the rest of Portugal, a country with a centuries-old history and many fabulous pieces and objects from this long journey, which I present here for auction. Only pieces of good quality, distinctly original, and obviously beautiful. Guarantee of quality and great care in the shipping of the items. Thank you.
