Piece measures 12 1/2". No chips or cracks. Never seen another one like it. Bottom shows was given as a present in 1991 but dates to 1970's. Supposedly made for Jim Henson originally as a present in the 1970's but I cannot confirm the story from the estate it came from. Jim Henson past away in 1990 so it may be possible it was from his estate. Please check out my other items on Ebay. Thank you for looking.
