Wooden Monkey Sculpture

A traditional Japanese wooden monkey sculpture, handcarved with a distinctive angular silhouette. Depicting a seated monkey holding a small golden object between its hands, the piece features bold carving marks, a natural wood finish, and an expressive red painted face.
 
The simplicity of its geometric form highlights the craftsmanship of Japanese woodcarving, while the subtle painted details bring a charming personality to the figure. The back bears an artisan's mark reading Ishimizu.
 
These are older pieces and may show signs of age, scratches, surface marks or use consistent with their history.
