      So does anybody have any clues?

      I have two of those nearly similar to yours except my two are sitting on their hind legs and about 34" tall. One has his head tilted to the left and one to the right. I haven't weighed them but I've estimated them at around 140 lbs. obviously these are similar to Chinese Foo dogs but one doesn't have a ball in its hand. Maybe that's just the Thai take on a foo dog would be my guess. Other than that... I don't know much more. Yours is the only one if seen that is obviously made by the same designer. It's odd I can't put a picture in comments.

      Actually after looking at a Qilin.... And since my pair are not holding a ball in a claw... Im going to say Qilin...
