THIS IS AN AUSTRIAN COLD PAINTED FIGURE OF A JAPANESE MAN WITH AN UMBERELLA AND CARRYING WHAT I PRESUME IS A NIGHT LIGHT CIRCA 1900 - 1910 THE POLE HE IS CARRYING HAS A BULB HOLDER ON TOP WITH WIRES RUNNING DOWN THE INSIDE OF THE POLE TO TWO TERMINALS LOCATED ON THE BASE. I HAVE NEVER TRIED TO GET IT TO WORK (didnt fancy electrocuting myself ) AND ONLY HAD IT AS A DISPLAY. IT HAS A NODDING HEAD WHICH IN MY OPINION DOESNT SEEM TO NOD VERY WELL ALTHOUGH I SUPPOSE IT MAKES IT A LITTLE BIT MORE UNUSUAL. THE PAINTWORK IS IN GOOD CONDITION EXCEPT FOR THE POLE WHERE THERE IS SOME PAINT LOSS BUT YOU CAN STILL SEE THAT IT WAS YELLOW AT ONE TIME. IT STANDS ON A BLACK PAINTED WOODEN BASE AND IS 8 INCHES HIGH TO THE TOP OF THE BULB HOLDER. THIS IS A UK AUCTION ONLY AND POSTAGE WITHIN THE UK ONLY
