Brown carved netsuke sculpture of a man sitting on a barrel, facing right, looking up, wearing traditional Japanese robes. He has both arms bent at the elbow; the right hand holds something. The right leg is slightly forward. The background is light gray. The sculpture appears to be made from tiger's eye or a similar shiny stone.
