    Purchased many moons ago on eBay. I thought it was "neat". It's not terrifying, but that little face on the vase sure is odd! Stands about 8" tall. Has anyone seen anything like this before? I have been cleaning house lately and getting rid of clutter, but just can't part with it! It's such a great little conversation piece. Sticker on bottom reads "Kirsten of Copenhagen".

    Thanks in advance for any information!

      Copenhagen huh. Land of Hans Christian Andersen. I wonder if this could be a character from one of his "fairy-tales" Perhaps better known to the population in Denmark, than a more common character that we know well from his stories. There are 168 of them! Many of which with characters we have never heard of here.
      Just a thought. I love it anyway!!

      Is this a decorative figure?--or is in a vase/container?

      So sorry to have not responded! PostCard Collector, thanks for the suggestion. I will look into the possibility that the likeness on the piece (a small vase) is a Danish fairy-tale character. Thanks for the tip! :)
