    This was bought in Hong Kong in the early 1990's, probably not antique. It is 13" tall, partly glazed.
    I'm interested to know his origins in history and his status in what I imagine was some court. I have not been able to find any figures in paintings or statues resembling him. Thanks for any information I may receive.
