    I've had this for years. It is a painted tile. I just love the pipe smoking animal. It cracks me up. It looks pretty old but I am not sure how old it is or where it is from . In what place and time did animals smoke pipes and wear coats?

      I believe that's a Quimper faience tile, probably from France, and it's awesome!

      Or have human feet ? Got a good laugh out of this. Maybe the 1st prototype for the Trojan horse that was discarded ! LOL !!
