These figurines were produced by Freeman-McFarlin Pottery, a California pottery company that operated from 1951 to 1980. The company was founded by Gerald McFarlin and Maynard Anthony Freeman, with Freeman being the designer who reinvented their product line to include larger and more detailed figurines.  The figurine in the image is a seated alpaca or llama and features intricate details and a dark gray color with brown undertones. It is also artist signed on the bottom. The style of the piece is Mid-Century Modern. These figurines were popular and the company utilized a variety of colors and glazes, though white and gold were the most common. Some pieces may have red under a gold leaf to enhance the color, and this is a natural sign of aging. In 1980, Hagen-Renaker acquired Freeman-McFarlin Pottery and continued to use some of their designs.
