He came from Italy although the 800 stamp and the origins of the Kewpie-production make me think he could be German. He s an odd looking small fellow, don't you think? I think he represents a Kewpie doll, which was popular from +\-1912 onward. I also included a picture of my small golden peg doll. I already showed it here earlier, but maybe its difficult to see how it is supposed to look with all the missing enamel, so I also included a picture of how it is supposed to look with all the paint intact.(mine still has one eye!):peeking::hilarious: It dates from around the same area, maybe a bit earlier. I think they are adorable each on its own way. 'Kawaii'. I missed out on a Fumsup charm that went way over my price range (cheap!) a while back. So, what do you think of my latest find, is it supposed to represent a Kewpie? Should I restore my Peg doll (although I think its still cute with only one eye left!) :smuggrin: Do you also love 'cute' jewelry?[/QUOTE]
