Hey everyone, check this little guy out. A stretched ceramic dog or pig or what.
I had this in my car for about 3 months now, I forgot I had it, fell in between that area in your car, you know which one ? The one in between the front seats.
Is this supposed to be a paper weight or something, anybody know ?
Thanks for looking at this thing...
Billy
Knife rest!
My guess is that it's supposed to be a boar, and the gold accents are the tusks. It could be a knife rest as kyra says, or it could just be an odd, elongated critter. Looks like 1960s.
:-)))
Bonnie is right, a boar!
Maybe from Limoges, porcelain specialised French town.
Similar, but other theme:

Oh Cool, Thanks Girls..I would have never guessed that, Thanks Kyra.
Mystery Solved!
Thank you for the link, kyratango, there were dog knife rests in that shop as well. I had never heard of this before, learn something new every day. Nice find, Billy! :)
