    The pieces have nothing in common but just combining them in the same topic.
    Any help with IDing them?
    Thanks

    Thanks. The horsy is indeed Kosta Boda. Some says it was designed by Eric Hoglund, other by Bertil Vallien.

    The bunny has no openings.

    So not for candy then.
    I wonder if it's by one of the same companies who made them but this one was a mistake?

    The only rabbit I found that I believe is sufficiently similar to yours was from an expired eBay listing. All detail from the listing is gone; all that's left is a thumbnail photo:

    and this bit of the description:

    Oh my mistake, then!

    I like him even better now that I know he's not hollow and doesn't open up... he's nice.

    SBSVC, that looks really similar!

    GG, you can see the jadeite one? I can't :(

    Found this Spark Plug - character from Snuffy Smith cartoon, I think - on pinterest where you'll find lots of character candy holders.

    I like him in clear & in purple better, but he certainly is one handsome bunny!

    Easter is coming, and I'm sure he'll sell very well!
