Hand Painted Occupied Japan Woman with Instrument Figurine

I love the color of this beautiful figurine and love the touch of whimsy she would bring to any vignette. She comes from my personal collection and has been used in a few different ways, but my most recent and favorite way to display her was on my mantle next to a collection of old books acting almost like a bookend. Imperfections to the piece include some over-painting and missing spots of color, from time of manufacture. This piece is in very good vintage condition with no chips, cracks or breaks. Please inspect the listing photos closely for all details on the condition of this pre-1940s piece.

This figurine is about 6.75 inches tall with a rounded base which measures in just around 2.5 inches in diameter.
