A cobalt blue glazed porcelain Chinese lion figurine (18th-19th century), also known as a foo dog, that was probably the handle or a knob for a porcelain lid. The base shows evidence that it was once attached to another piece of porcelain, but was likely made separately and attached to the lid. Behind each ear is a raised dot and along the spine are eight raised dots in a row. This object was found at Al Zubarah during the Copenhagen expedition in 2012, revealing Qatar’s connection to China at this period.
