<p>[QUOTE=&quot;journeymagazine, post: 4364590, member: 84&quot;]I bought this nice porcelain elephant vase at a local thrift store Friday - it appears old to me but I really can&#039;t say for sure - any thoughts? Is it oriental?</p><p>It&#039;s cute and squat (8.5&quot;T x 7.5&quot;W)</p><p>The fact that there is no markings on the bottom; is that a good thing or bad? (if I remember correctly imports had to have a Made In... mark after the 1920&#039;s or 30&#039;s?</p><p><br /></p><p>I also bought this beautiful 24&quot; tall, hand painted, made in Italy jaguar that is made of terra cotta &amp; - is it porcelain or maybe glazed and painted terra cotta on the top?</p><p>I found a few just like mine at crazy prices - including 1 that sold - close to $2,000!?</p><p>I got this one for $50 because 1 tooth is broken/missing - does that hurt the value that much or did I hit a home run with this?</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks for any help!</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]364081[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]364082[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]364083[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]364084[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]364085[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]364086[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]364087[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]364088[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]364092[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]364095[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
