Possibly Mexican Folk Art Lion ? Intricately Painted. Maybe Wood/Paper Mache?:
$45.00

I truly do not know where this lion figurine came from or even what it is made of. I initially thought it was ceramic, but when you tap it, it sounds and feels like either a light wood like pine or even super-thick paper mache. I found it while cleaning out my basement and don't know which late/ex-family member it came from.
