Netsuke of Woman and Monkey

Small sculpture of a woman and a monkey, made from a light-colored material, possibly ivory or bone, with a glossy finish. The woman is depicted wearing a headband and a robe. She is crouched down with her knees bent. The monkey is sitting on her back. The woman's mouth is open, and she appears to be laughing or surprised. The monkey's face is visible, with its mouth closed. The sculpture is set against a plain gray background. The artist's style suggests it is a traditional Japanese netsuke. The title of the piece is "Netsuke of Woman and Monkey".
