The seller says: You gotta LOVE this one! He is old, I have had him for 35 years and he came from an antique shop in Florence, Italy. He never really was used for anything except perhaps a ring or 2 as shown in one pic. I always referred to him as "The Stoner Bull", I suppose because he is sitting on stone? Hmmmm Let me think about that. Well, the stone he sits on is a nice ONYX and quite heavy. He has a very teeny bit of tarnish around his tiny ears, but that is the only issue I can see. Will make a great gift for the one who has seen it all. He sits 5" and is 3.25" diameter.
