This is a Kutani ware beckoning cat figurine.

A beckoning cat with its left paw raised is said to "beckon people," and the effect is believed to differ depending on the height of the raised paw. It is said that a cat with its paw raised high attracts good fortune from afar, while a cat with its paw raised low attracts good fortune from nearby.

These are items that have been stored at home for a long time and were found while cleaning out my parents' house.
There is some dirt due to long-term storage, and some minor scratches and scuffs, especially on the gold-plated parts, but I think it is in relatively good condition.
