Beautiful porcelain ceramic quarter-horse with saddle. Green Melba Ware sticker intact under left side of saddle. Horsie was acquired from the Fargo-dome rummage sale some years ago and had a broken leg and the left tip his ear was partially missing but it's hardly noticable, it's still a beautiful horse. No other damage besides the left ear and left leg which was a clean break glued back on with epoxy. If someone knew how to repair porcelain, the ear could possibly be rebuilt and painted. The lower left broken leg was glued perfectly and also around the glue joint which was clear but the glue has now yellowed and looks like a yellow band-aid around his leg and needs to be painted. T are some small cracks or 'crazing' on the body of the horse but it is hardly noticable and I didn't even know it was t until I took it out in the bright sunlight to take a picture. I'm selling my horse because I don't have room for him any more and maybe someone who collects these things can fix his ear. I glued his hoofs to a piece of wood so he would never fall over again. I used 2-part epoxy glue but the horse could be carefully removed from the wood base with a small pull saw. Because the wood adds weight the shipping would be a little more. Will start bidding out low so good luck. This is a good horse, he just needs a home, maybe with other horses.
