Hi,

The sculpture you have is a 20th century Chinese piece, probably intended for tourists as something like a match holder.

It looks like it's made out of soapstone.

Hope this helps!

Regards,

It's chinese. Made from Soapstone from the second half of the 20th century. Scholars object for water.
This is a tourist type ware.
