Re: porcelain figurine

Occupied japan pieces were made after World War Two, they were for the most part mass produced cheap decorator pieces . Values for the figurines are still modest as they were made in huge numbers, of which a great many survive to this day. As you have posted no image I can only give you a rough estimate -$25.00- $40.00.
