The sculpture captivates with its distinctive, expressive style. The clown has a large red nose, striking facial makeup, a stylized hairstyle, and richly detailed clothing. The hands, the striped stockings, and the distinctive black shoes are depicted in a particularly interesting way.

The piece is signed “Jun Asilo” on the back and dated “1995,” which is a significant collector’s feature.

The figurine is preserved in its original vintage condition, with visible signs of age and use, such as minor scuffs, chips in the polychrome paint, and natural signs of wear. These give the item an authentic character and are visible in the attached photographs.

Note:
The wooden bench visible in the photos is NOT included in the sale. It was used solely as a display prop to show the figure’s natural, seated position. Only the clown figure is included in the sale.
