Good morning. I recently purchased some ceramic figurines of jazz players. Does anyone know what this instrument might be? It just looks like a giant leaf to me---lol. Thanks for any suggestions. gina

Hi Gina,

Is yours like this group of figurines:

If so, looks like your "leaf instrument" is actually the figure's clothing + the microphone they're holding & they're the singer in the group.

Maybe some of the gold color wore off on yours or maybe the singer in your group is either a daring lady or a dude, ha-ha!

I do believe we may have a winner.

Not saying 'NO' doesn't mean 'YES'.

The foolishness of one's actions or words is determined by the number of witnesses.

Respect, like money, is only of 'worth' when it is earned - with all due respect, it can not be ordained, legislated or coerced. Anonymous

Thank you so much! I didn't look at 1st dibs. Holy cow---the price! I looked closer at the figurine & sure enough it is supposed to have the top portion painted. I appreciate your help ---like I said all I could see was a giant leaf.
