    I picked up the bull with the boy (I think) on its back in Jinju-si, South Korea and I got the little dragon fish in Seoul. The dragon was part of a larger collection of similar-looking animals but it's the only one that really caught my eye. I dont think it's very old (or the seller was just really nice) because I managed to get it for a really nice price! Here are a few more pics, neither piece has a maker's mark that I've been able to find but if you want to see any other pics, let me know! Both pieces have two holes, the bull's is in its mouth and on its back under the child(?) while the dragon's are where its mouth is and behind its second back spike.

    Figtree3 What would you do if you weren't afraid?

    The dragon is adorable! I'm partial to the celadon color, too.
