Title: Blanc de Chine figurine
Post by: Adriano on Sep 02, 2016, 00:30:02
I would like to identify this small figurine.
I think it is Japanese for the ?Nippon? mark and for the small internal hole.
This mark was used from late Meiji to Taisho period, but is the bottom right for the period?
Any comment is welcome.

Thank you.

Looks like this was made in two pieces, the top " the figure " was made in a mould and then the bottom was added, looks modern to me Mid 20th century or later, in my opinion.
