    IMG_9924.jpg IMG_9925.jpg This belonged to my recently passed grandmother. Would love any info if anyone knows anything - it appears to be porclein but I have no idea from where or when. I included a photo of the markings on the back, as well.

    She was born in 1923 in San Francisco to Italian immigrants. She married in 1951 to a wealthy businessman and was a very successful real estate agent in her own right.

    It says Zaccagnini, so it's Italian. That's all I know.

    Krysten, I see your hand (or someone's hand) for scale, but what is the approximate size of this? Maybe 14-18" high?

    I can't figure out what year this might have been. 1950s? I'm totally guessing. Anyone know?
