Bronze sculpture of a 10th century Chinese monk, called 'Budai' (not to be confused with the Buddha!).
This monk (incorrectly also called 'Happy Buddha') is always accompanied by a group of children and symbolizes prosperity and wealth.
This example was probably cast around 1950, and was originally hollow (now filled with a stone-like mixture).
The work is in excellent condition.
