Figure and base carved wood with gold painting. Japan, Edo period, 18th century. Case: ca. 5.1 x 2.3 x 1.75 inches (13 x 6 x 4.5 cm). Case with minimal wear consistent with age and use. Kannon covered in soot and gilding repainted over the soot by a professional Buddhist carver/painter, probably in the late 19th century. Some jewelry missing.
