er...not something like that ....exactly that!:bucktooth:
I've got one of these, (mine is nicer though, Famille Rose) ..thanks for the ID - I knew it was Qianlong but didn't know what it was for ...until...
Japanese, new
You can still buy these with stuff in them in Chinese grocery stores.
It is pottery rather than porcelain - the King and I first appeared in 1944 although the musical hit Broadway in 1951
It's a guy, one of a pair with a gal, popular round the time of the King and I hitting the scene so early 50's most likely
Gibson could draw - this person can't. Price it to sell - it also had a stain from the old backboard so make it cheap.
what a disappointment - I wanted it to be Medusa :inpain:

Chasing the Christians out of Istanbul maybe?
It looks like part of a tazza
There's something for everyone on eBay!

Same one - thanks!!! and another ...now I have the Kestner name ;)...
Or vise-versa maybe? The porcelain models seem more frivolous and feminine to my eye.
I want to say bamboo but I can't see any grain or pores in the pics ..odd!
I've restored a dag, many years ago though! As I remember it was pretty straightforward.
Unmarked, porcelain about 11" tall. Good score for $3.00 IMHO Anyone know who made it? [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
