An interesting looking, vintage hand carved wooden figurine.

I Google Lensed it and this is what it said:

This item appears to be an East Asian vintage hand-carved wood figurine, likely representing a scholar, traveler, or cultural figure. The clean, geometric carving cuts style closely resembles Japanese Ittobori (one-cut carving) or similar mid-century regional folk art styles popular in East Asia.

Key Characteristics:

Attire: The figure is dressed in historical or traditional robes consisting of a structured top tunic or poncho-style cloak layered over a long, flowing skirt or wide-legged trousers (hakama style).

Headwear: He wears a small, tightly fitted traditional cap or topknot style head covering.

Condition Notes: The left forearm (viewer's left) appears broken off at the sleeve cuff, and there is a noticeable structural vertical split extending through the base platform.

Purchased from a private sale in Witney, West Oxfordshire.

I'm uncertain of its origin or age, so please do your own research online. Thanks.

Measures: 4.75" in height and 1.5" in width.

No markings on its base that I can see, or anywhere on the figure.
