Thank you for viewing. These are small Bizen-yaki items. The dachshund, goldfish, and object are likely originally made as chopstick rests. Also, the Komainu (guardian lion-dog) and dachshund seem to have cracked during firing, and the cracks are visible from the back. (The cracked areas may not be noticeable depending on how they are displayed, such as from the front.) I can't find any maker's marks on any of them, so I don't know the names of the artists. My father, who was born and raised in Bizen City, obtained these from acquaintances, friends, and artists. He said that his collection included some very old pieces and works by famous artists, but now I'm not sure which ones are, or even if it's true. Please view the images and make your own judgment and take responsibility for whether the items are valuable. These items have been stored by a non-professional for a long time. Thank you for your understanding.
