Oriental Figure and Porcelain Stand from Old Walgreen Estate

Description

This figure and stand came together, however, I'm not sure they are really related. they came with a  home our grandfather purchased from Charles Walgreen in Chicago in about 1923. They were reported to be antiques at that time.  As you can see there is some damage, which was sustained in an earthquake.
