William the Hippo Metropolitan Museum of Art stamped MMA on underbelly, beautiful deep turquoise blue crackle glaze hippopotamus figure, no chips or nicks, small white dot on front foot seems to be a variation in the pottery. I do not know how old this Hippo is but it looks very vintage to me. 8\" x 4 1/2\" high x 3\" wide approx measurements.
William is the nickname of a faience hippopotamus from the Middle Kingdom of Egypt in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art who serves as an informal mascot of the museum.
