This is a rare and stunning vintage lion figurine from the 1950s. The piece features beautiful African lion gold gilt and green rhinestone eyes, giving it a unique and decorative appeal. Measuring 7" at its longest points and 3 1/2" at its tallest point, this unmarked clay pottery piece was made in Japan and is perfect for collectors of mid-century modern art deco style. The glossy finish and 3D effect make it a one-of-a-kind piece that will add character to any space.

  1. Very good seller. The item was well packaged The radio arrived smashed because the lady of USPs literally threw it at least 4 feet onto my porch. No amount of packaging would have saved the radio from such a rough treatment. The seller refunded the radio after showing pictures of the damage. Clear, good and courteous communication I launched a complaint of malicious damage against this employee of USPS, is the third time she got caught on the doorbell camera just throwing stuff on my porch

  2. Shipping was acceptable and arrived within 8-10 days of buying. Packing was a little sketch w/ only 2 sides of the item being protected with cut-up cardboard, although it was wrapped in bubble wrap..I prefer them in a box (especially a chase item) but it arrived undamaged thankfully..just something to consider in future. Item was as described in the info at the store. I felt this was a great value being a chase piece and I'll definitely return to the store to buy more items 4 sho'!

  3. I purchased a vintage amber Federal glass refrigerator container because I'm switching my containers from plastic to glass. The container matched the description on the website, was shipped quickly and arrived in perfect condition. The package arrived quickly and the packaging keep the container from any damage during the shipping process. I felt the container was a good value.
