Murano Duck but what is the other one?

Hello Great board!!! I know one is a duck but I can't figure out what the other one is, is it a duck also? What year do you think these were made? Thanks so much.

IMO it's hard to say Beeman.  Perhaps you could look for age related wear on the bases?  Ducks are so popular that they're still made today and by various countries too.  Yours don't appear to be terribly old to me, but I'd say the duck with the feet shows better craftsmanship than the one on the conical base, but that's only my opinion!  They look great as a pair though.  :D
