Here are some thumbnails of a couple of my favorite pieces, first my winged dog.

And this is the only bisque porcelin carousel that isn't in storage.

The pose is called Star Gazer and the style is Country Fair (flowers and ribbons. Another popular style is called Coney Island, recognizable by it's glitz and jeweled adornments).
This is the 'romance side' (the side that is to the outside always has more detail to it).

And this is the inside, the less detailed side.

wow those are just fabulous - the gargoyles can be a little scary eh

so how big are they ?

My horses are about 4 inches long by about 6 inches high and that particular gargoyle is about 4 inches by 8 inches and weighs about 3 pounds, it's concrete.

I'm not big into carosels but the gargoyle is awesome!

wow, now you see the horses looked a lot larger than that for some reason

are the gargoyles in your garden ?

No, they are all indoors.
One day, when I have a real backyard, I'll probably get larger versions for outside.
The winged dog was typically used on gate posts as a guardian.
