Based on the mark and images this piece dates from before World War Two, and is actually a copy of a Meissen original made during the late 1700's. Value about $125.00.

This is a really neat carved stone horned owl sculpture of figurine. It is very smooth stone or rock and feels different most soap stone I've seen.arizona estate liquidator
