a clay animal, this time

A little elephant I bought at a flea market. He's made of an interesting streaky stuff--the woman said it was ceramic. No, just clay, maybe.

I didn't draw in the patterning on his hide, obviously.

We came across one just like this from a 90 year old lady's estate.

Do you know the origin?

Thanks!

I don't know any more than it was a $2 item at a flea market. I'd say it's a mass-produced, perhaps imported, item. No markings of any kind are on mine, but the streakiness of the clay is very interesting.
