    My mother in law found this and we're both curious as to who made it and when it was made can't find this exact one anywhere but it's a neat little thing I think it's a book end but not to sure

    Hello, Matthew

    Cool piece...It's a shame that the hands have been snapped off.

    I think ONLY ONE hand has been snapped/broken off......enlarge the image....you'll see.........'ctrl' key plus scroll forward with your mouse IN the image!! She's holding something in her hand!

    I did zoom in earlier and again now. I don't know, it still looks like both hands have been amputated to me Aqui. Maybe we need a side shot

    OK, NOW, can you see her hand?? If not, ask Matthew to take a CLEAR closeup...If I'm wrong you will BOTH have my MOST sincere apologies!!!!!!!!! YES, it's blurry, but the best my damn imaging stuff would do!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! To help: the underside of her hand is like, pointing up at you........

    It would be SUPER nice if @Matthew Smith would pop back in with a sharp close-up so we could see it clearly ENLARGED.....JUST THE HAND AREA, if possible!!! These things can drive ME crazy too, ya know!!!:rolleyes::rolleyes::smug:
