This beautiful bottlenose dolphin figurine was made by Zelesny Brod Skol (ZBS) around 2003-2008. I purchased it directly from the factory. It has been sitting on a high beam in my kitchen the entire time I've owned it. It was quite dusty when I got it down, so I had to wash it. he original ZBS label got wet when I cleaned the dolphin, and although it was dry and seemed unaffected, it popped off when I went to take the photos. I have glued it back on, but don't know whether it will stay on. The dolphin figurine is in excellent condition, with no chips, cracks or scratches.

It measures 10 inches long from the tip of its nose to the end of its tail. It is 4 1/2 inches tall to the top of the fin on its back, and about 2 1/4 inches wide. It weighs 2 pounds 10.8 ounces before packing. These lovely dolphin figurines were hand worked by craftsmen at the ZBS factory and no two are exactly identical. This is made of neodymium glass, which ZBS called Alexandrit (Alexandrite). It's a color-changing glass and you can see that in my last photo. (Note that the room was kind of dark, so I lightened the photo, which then made the dolphin look aqua when it really is more of a plain blue color.)

I have another large ZBS Alexandrite dolphin, not as large as this one, in listing # 266905757195. Perhaps you would want a pair of dolphin figurines?
