    Hello Again,
    Thanks to everyone for the love and comments I've gotten on the last couple of peices.
    This is another recent acquisition,( Goodwill ). When I first saw it in the glass case I thought it might be a Pier1/Bombay item, but when I gave it another look thought differently. It looks very old, and the patina looks natural, not applied. It's heavy and beautiful, and stands via a metal rod which fits into the wood plug at the base of the head.
    I'd love to know the country of origin and get some idea of it's age, hoped that someone might know.

    Thanks for taking a look,
    Tonino

      Does appear to be really old without artificial ageing.

      What a relief to see a current site that Roy & I haven't gotten deleted! I know when to assume responsibility. Roy did it!
      I know this only makes sense to a few people.
