🔎 UNIDENTIFIED What is this Blowfish Character?

[chadkeath]

Hi and thank you in advance for your help and input. I’m trying to find out what this is used for and who possibly made this neat character piece. It is a blowfish with a hat that comes off. It is way to small for a teapot. It is marked with either Chinese or a Japanese signature. But that’s just a guess. Not very large, as fits in palm of your hand. Any help is appreciated.

Just Google Japanese Puffer fish Saki pot-You'll see that's what it is.

Just a quick guess, and it was spot on.

Thank you. I had thought for soy sauce but not saki.
