Ceramic Head, Man with Mustache and Pink Hat, by Bruce C, 1962 bony and ebony dominoes I've found a very close

I've found a very close match of this lovely small lacquer string holder that describes it (with some authority) as English Victorian-era Chinoiserie

The double faced jug measures 4" tall x 3 3/4" across with handle

representing various Dino species

I just love their silhouettes

Ceramic Head, Man with Mustache and Pink Hat, by Bruce C, 1962 bony and ebony dominoes I've found a very closeThis guy seems to me kind and quite sensitive, as well as rather elusive; I sense a rich inner life churning underneath his rose colored cap! I don't know anything of his origins, but he's signed on the underside Bruce C., 1962. A very charming shelf sitter, I think! 3 1 2" t x 3 1 4" w x 3 1 2" d. Crazing and a couple of small chips, as documented. The flaw on the back of the head is not a chip but rather a bit of clay adhered to the surface.
