Paul Sebastian 1990 Ceramic Item

The item appears to be a ceramic piece, likely a figurine or decorative object, distinguished by its off-white or light cream glazed finish. The image focuses on the base or underside of the item, revealing manufacturing details. It is made of ceramic material, indicated by the smooth, hard surface and glossy glaze. The color is predominantly off-white, with some slight reddish or pinkish discoloration around one of the holes and faint brownish/yellowish staining on the flat bottom surface near the inscription. There are at least two circular holes on the underside, which could be for drainage in a planter, for mounting purposes, or simply due to the manufacturing process of hollow ceramics. The most prominent feature is the impressed or debossed maker's mark which reads 'Paul Sebastian' followed by a copyright symbol and the year '1990'. This indicates the manufacturer and the year of production, placing its estimated age at over three decades old. The quality of the glaze appears consistent, though there are some minor surface imperfections visible, such as small bumps or specks, and slight wear consistent with age and handling. The craftsmanship appears to be standard for mass-produced ceramic decorative ware from that period. The precise form or type of item cannot be fully determined from the provided images, but the presence of holes suggests it might have served a functional purpose or been part of a larger assembly. The overall condition, aside from the noted discoloration and minor surface wear, seems fair.
