<p>[QUOTE=&quot;JanieB, post: 3986935, member: 3759&quot;]John Brassey - thank you for your reply. I inherited the figurine from my grandmother, so I know its at least as old as me (and that&#039;s quite old!). She used to have it on her fireplace in pride of place. It fascinated me then too. But I do agree there&#039;s a dirty patch on the base which I hope isn&#039;t suspicious. </p><p><br /></p><p>I also noticed the cat&#039;s face in the Hansons sale was a bit different to mine - in fact the whole thing doesn&#039;t have the same feel. It looks more like something you&#039;d win at a fair! Certainly the antique dealer I saw this morning was quite eager to hand over £100 without checking it out and with no makers mark, despite the damage. So I&#039;m hopeful![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
