Chenille figure of a white monkey wearing a fez and a red waistcoat.  I believe historically, monkeys wearing a fez often appear to be displaying mischievous behaviour and this one appears to be holding a chicken.

 

 

He has a metal hook on his back so is also suitable for hanging and stands on a gold painted wooden circular base and can be displayed standing if preferred.

 

 

I believe this possibly dates from around the 1930s or even earlier. I have had it for over 20 years and it was old when I bought it but I have stored it carefully, away from sunlight and it is still in very good condition with vibrant colours.  There is however some long-standing slight fading to the fez as can be seen on the photos.  Please see all the photos for condition as they are an important part of the listing.

 

 

Measures approx 4 tall.
