Default formia Penguin

As some of you know, I love formia birds. I just got this today, It is 7 1/2 inches tall. It is dark purple, white and clear.


front


side


label

Any one have an idea on age? I think it is newer but that is ok.

thanks

David

David, it is a piece that was made recently. BUT that isn't to say that your penguin is necessarily new. Some Formia pieces were made for several years. Unless they have a VM or VAM label, I can't put an exact age on them.

You know you're penguin picture was just kidnapped to be put in the zoo. I hope that is okay.

Your penguin is in the zoo now at http://sites.google.com/site/muranoz...ds-by-formia-2 . It looks rather lonely on its own page. I hope we have a few other birds to join it soon. Let me know if you see any changes you want to make.
