As surely many of you do I am used to traverse my village asking people if they have ninja stuff for sale. Most of the time they are just being polite, but yesterday I have indeed received two special items... Chinese? Japanese? I have no idea whatsoever about those things. The female figurine shows some age, but I am not sure if there is a straightforward way to compare those signatures with something online?

The fugurine of the lady is wearing a Manchu hairstyle and carrying a water pipe, both popular around mid 19th century. Not sure if it's period or if the style is copied later.
