Description from the seller

A Chinese figurine of a reclining cat. Color: ivory white with a greenish haze. About 4 cm. It came from an inheritance from an aunt who lived in Brussels and there combed through antique markets and antique shops. We had overlooked them and almost given it as a toy to our grandchild.
