A finely carved hardwood sculpture depicting a joyful boy riding atop a water buffalo. The buffalo is rendered with naturalistic texture details, including carved fur-like patterns, and prominent horns. The boy, possibly a scholar or a figure of prosperity, is shown in traditional attire, with a contented expression and a flat, disc-like hat on his back. The wood has a deep reddish-brown tone with a polished finish, highlighting the intricate carving.

Very Good, with minor surface wear consistent with age and handling. No significant chips or cracks observed.
