    Found this one for £1.
    I know it's a fu dog/lion creature
    I know that they are Chinese origin
    Originated in Korea then Japan & China sometime B C.....
    I DONT THINK THIS ONES OLD !!
    But it is big at 9" h x 9" long it's the male version with the ball under his paw, in cobalt blue & cream with tan bits ...
    The thing I find strange about this one compared to others is it's mouth!! ....... It's opening is rectangle like a slot & it's nose is holed right through to the inside .... ???
    The base is open at the bottom but sealed to the creature & is pen marked ,looks like CHOWG ?? as in pics ...
    Thanks for looking :-)
