Rosie, could that be auctioneer's license  :) or did Sabino really name it a Gazelle though?
I found a porcelain one by Royal Haeger that had a similar look, but apart from that and the Sabino, none that were as  stylised.
I was wondering whether it could be Czech perhaps?  but I'm sure  I'm only thinking that because Moser used a deep coloured amethyst ::)

Sorry for going off topic not sure if these are related but loads of them on Mallorca and boy can they climb took these in Calla San Vincente on the North of the island woke me up one morning jumped onto the balcony to eat an apple that had been left on the Patio table knocking the lot over in the process. So after that pinched bread and fruit from the Restaurant and fed them every night.
Apparently they lived on one side of the bay and went to the other side to feed unfortunately someone decided to build an hotel in between so they had to come down through the hotel to follow the natural path they had followed for centuries.

complete longshot here but adding to the thoughts...I wonder if Gordiola or Lafiore did moulded animals?  that colour is a colour I also associate with Spanish glass for some reason.
