    Approx 10" tall. Last photo shows the multiple markings on the base but can't make out any of it. Any thoughts on origin/age/maker much appreciated. Thank you for taking a look.

    Thank you, Bakers!

    Time to take it off of the ping pong table for photographing (away from :cat:) and back into the cushioned box I had it in!

    I was reading the name upside down, then took the photos and felt like part of the name started with "Long..." but the last name was worn or missing. Longwy it is!

    Now to go about dating it!

    When I was doing my quick Google (to make sure my vague memory of "that's a very good name!" was accurate,) I think I saw a couple sites that claimed to have marks.

    Thank you Janet and Nokita. I looked at bit and thought it matched the category for late 1800's as well.

    Very helpful, and appreciate getting the additional information.
