I bought this from an auction last night. Not because its beautiful but because I had no idea about what it is. Seems somehow spooky to say the least. I've tried to find information on this item but I can't find anything about this exact one. I've seen other baby head planters but this is totally different.
Would appreciate any help of information from anyone. This piece is giving me the creeps, l0l.

I agree, bit creepy.
I dunno, maybe it's more of a vase since it doesn't have the hole in the bottom. Just a thought that might change your search. I've never seen a head vase so cartoony and with so little paint detail. Cool find!
super spooky!
