    Description

    Vintage Japanese porcelain figure of Tanuki the badger, probably to be used as a toothpick holder. In Japanese folklore tanuki is a notorious trickster: it drums with his paws on its large belly (tanuki no hara tsuzumi), imitating the sounding of gongs in temples and inns, and leading tired travelers astray in the darkness. Nicely made, beautiful brown glaze, in very good condition. Height 1 3/4 inches.
