    Water buffalo horn Buddha finds a few similar. Probably Southeast Asia rather than China or Japan.

    I agree, and she is holding the three-legged toad.
    It is not an antique Tibetan yak horn, that is one of those Chinese seller's fibs. This is fairly recent and has never been anywhere near a yak or Tibet.

    In the link Aaron provided, this figure is referred to as 'he', but maybe a translation problem with gendered pronouns?
