I found this Mexican folk art lion candleholder along with a donkey, listed separately,  with which it makes a terrific pair. I just can't resist these when I come across them as I find them 100% cheer inducing, and like to imagine a festive table lit by a whole menagerie. They also make me think of friendship, with the little wire-legged birds on either side riding along for company.

4 3/16" t x 4 1/4" l x 2 3/8" w. The candleholder is sized for a candle about 1/2 inch in diameter. Very good vintage condition, with no chips or cracks that I can see. There is a little old wax inside the candleholder and there was a little that had dripped down one side, which shows in a few photos but which I have since largely removed.
