Hand-painted Porcelain Bowling Pin Dish with "A Record Breaker" Bowler antique Indian animal as if in motion

as if in motion

which I've been pretty excited to learn about

These would be great on a vanity or dresser used as pill boxes or containers for rings and earrings

which seems about right for this one

I think they're just so beautiful

Hand-painted Porcelain Bowling Pin Dish with "A Record Breaker" Bowler antique Indian animal as if in motionA pretty fun and curious dish, and one that would certainly make a great gift for a champion bowler and maybe also for a fan of the Big Lebowski, as I think this cigar smoking character bears a fairly close resemblance to John Goodman! Perhaps it is actually Kegel (German 9 pin bowling) that he is playing, as the dish was made in Germany, but often one sees porcelain manufactured in one country and decorated in another, which I assume was the case
