What is this?

Hello. Can you also help me identify this item. It is gold-plated and about 8 cm high. Is it a seal? Thank you

 

Welcome to the forum Gajdas.
It is a beautiful item. The animal is called Makara, a Hindu and Buddhist mythical creature for protection. It combines physical parts of other animals, like elephant, lion, dragon.
I can't see the detail of the base very well, the camera focused on your hand, not the symbol. But I think it is from India or Southeast Asia.

 

Thank you for your answer. Are you able to assess the value of this item ?? I'm going to sell

Thank you for the picture. I am sorry, I can't tell you more about it, I have never seen this particular item. I only recognize the symbolism.
I add your picture 'full image', maybe others will be able to find an item like it.

 

@Bronwen thank you for your translation, Polish I think? Google?

@komokwa , you can usually find something related to an item, anything?

 

Yes, Polish. Seems IM Translator does a very good job with it, better than its Italian!

 

This is only slightly less blurry......a chess piece or a 'seal'???

 

HA! QUESTION??? AM I the ONLY one that sees an image (BELOW) of a figure squatting down and arched over to the right?????? As in the OP's 3rd down original image above! Haven't a clue what it could mean though!!!!

 

Thanks for the answers. I am sending a more accurate photo. According to me, it's a seal but it does not remind me of anything

 

OK, @GAJDAS, last one, just highlighted to accentuate what @Any Jewelry is, I believe talking about!!! And thank you AJ for explaining it!!! BTW, I'm seeing the 'creature', I think a couple of birds, and maybe a seal (ocean type!) THAT'S what's been jumping out at me......

 

Kinda a Grecian key border on seal part, and the handle may be a mythical bird of sorts.
On the first pic I see dings or marks nears bottom.

 

A bit of confusion, I didn't explain it well, sorry about that.
The Makara is the animal shape of the entire thing, this one, with the trunk:


I have no idea what the decoration on the base is, so I didn't say anything about it. I doubt it can be used as a seal, because it doesn't have clear, sharp lines. If you put ink on that, or stamp it into sealing wax, people will only see blobs.
Although, @Aquitaine , your rendition of what it could be is very nice.

 

You explained WELL!, I didn’t undstand WELL! Got it. Thanks!

 

OK, SO I'm the one that mis-read your description.....but that's still what I see.....
although I could be blind as the proverbial bat

 

I got it wrong, ( but I see a tiny fish in the squiggles) call Rorschach !
