Figure

Tiny figure. Probably depicting Father Christmas in red robe and with a red pointed cap. Green trimmings along the edges of the garment. On his back carrying a white sack. Carved from wood in an angular style (jap. ittobori). It is questionable whether this object actually comes from Japan.
