    Suspect these aren't PC these days but I'm curious about where they may have come from. Seem to be cold painted red clay which I'm wondering if it would be correctly called Terra Rosa.
    Ideas on origin?

    Just out of curiosity, I'm wondering if this might be a mark of the maker....you can see one also circled between her legs! They're kind cute, in a strange way!! Sorry I can't help with 'where from'....
