Hand-painted Porcelain Bowling Pin Dish with "A Record Breaker" Bowler antique Indian animal but I fell in love

but I fell in love with her

which seems about right for this one

each opening measures about 1 3/4" across at lip

with a perimeter of braided sweetgrass on the face and side of the lid

the more amazed I am

Hand-painted Porcelain Bowling Pin Dish with "A Record Breaker" Bowler antique Indian animal but I fell in loveA 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!
