Pottery Lion with Great Mane handpainted vase UnfortunatelyI love this little clay lion, from whiskers to tail. I purchased him from a fellow vendor at the Essex Exchange who is an artist and eclectic collector, and who taught for many years at Monserrat College of Art in Beverly, MA. He is heavy, charming from every angle, great on a desk as as a paperweight or perched atop a pile of books or magazines. Great condition; 4. 5" tall x 3. 5" wide x 4" long.
