Nene Thomas ceramic carousel horses - FOUND!

[Dragonflitter]

Hey guys! I thought I would spread the word here since I'm not having much luck on ebay. I'm looking to complete my collection of ceramic carousel horses designed by fantasy couture artist Nene Thomas. This set has been retired for a while before I discovered them, so I can't order them anywhere and I'm reduced to searching through sites that sell second-hand.

I've managed to find all but the last one two. The palomino is named Phoenix Gold. Here's a photo:

And the zebra is named Moonlight Silver. Here's a photo:

If anyone sees them for sale in a second-hand store or online, I will definitely pay you handsomely for either of them! I prefer MIB but I would gladly take loose as well.

Is the one pikashoes shared a fakie, given its one of multiple from China? 


In any case, I had a look on eBay, because dang those are pretty and now I want them, and I found this seller selling 1 mib palamino which I would say is genuine.  It's almost twice the price of the Chinese sellers one though.

Sorry if its a fakie, I had no idea

Wow thanks guys! That was super helpful! I missed both of those in my searches before. I will do some investigating into both sellers, they both could be legit.

xeevee- The series is soooo pretty. There's only 6 in the whole series so it's not something that would take you forever to collect, which I appreciate! I'm terrified of having ceramics on display in my house, since I'm such a clumsy person. ^_^; Mine are staying in their boxes for now.

I mean, I don't know if it is a fakie.  I literally know nothing about the series.  Just Chinese sellers with multiples of something that should be rare make me suspicious.  If the seller was selling them for a bit cheaper I'd take a gamble and buy one myself, because if it's close enough, I'd be happy, but not everyone is happy with knock offs.

You know what else?  I totally misread the auction you posted.  It says they're made in China not that it's a Chinese seller.  It's probably fine  *face palm*

Haha no problem xeevee, when you deal with the world of online purchasing, it pays to be cautious!

I just have to say I'm soooo excited, after EIGHT MONTHS of watching ebay (more than half a year!) I finally found Moonlight Silver! He arrived and he is gorgeous. Now I have the complete collection! I can't wait to take photos and make a brag thread. ^_^
