    I was thinking of the porcelain figurine of a Cornish pixie my parents used to have. It had pointed ears, and no wings.
    I couldn't find a photo of a porcelain one, but this is a brass figurine of a Cornish pixie:

    And the Wiki page on pixies in Cornwall and Devon:

    Well, we have made some progress. Probably a mythical/fairytale figure, to adorn something in the vein of a Victorian pub table.

    Maybe in future someone will find the exact same heads on their original piece of furniture or some such. But for now, thank you all very much for looking and contributing.:)
