    I have only been able to find out it is a water buffalo. At first I thought it was a steer or a billy goat, lol. I'm not sure how old or from where it cane from, no markings.

      Must be part of the twelwe chinese zodiacal signs.

      Could be onyx?

      Thank you! It does look like onyx¡

      I have a similar one, the same color, the same animal, but with a Chinese man riding it and reading a book and mounted on a marble base. I assumed the stone was soapstone and that the animal was an ox.

      It took me awhile to figure out that it was a water buffalo, I would love to see a picture of yours.

      Soapstone was just to obvious as probably the majority of these type figures are made of it. Easy enough to tell by scratching the underside.

      You can take a look at mine. I just posted it.
