My girlfriend bought these at an estate sale and is trying to figure out where they are from and what are they? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The yellow one looks like a foo dog, the green and one of the terra cotta figures are chinese dragons. Is one of the feet on the yellow figure resting on a ball?

No the yellow one has its feet down with nothing under them. They all were the clay color that you see in the first 2 pictures. The last picture is them painted.

Not a foo dog then. They are depictions of chinese mythical creatures though. That doesn't mean they were made in China, just the inspiration.

Thank you! So you don't think they are Spanish made but with Chinese mythology? Just Chinese mythology inspired?
