This piece was once thought to be probably Portuguese, then it was thought to be made in Goa, but is more likely to have been made in Sri Lanka, another Portuguese colony. Comparison with other Cingalo- Portuguese figures make this virtually certain, and it is likely to date from the mid-seventeenth century.
