Yes, that is a beetle playing a cello, a snail playing a saxophone.....
......and a locust playing a xylophone
I found this insane little item on my trip to Cluj Napoca
in Transylvania, Romania. Saw it nestling in an Antiques market in
the town and knew I had to grab it as in my opinion there aren't enough
Eastern European musical insect ensembles around these days.
It probably dates from around the 1940's or 50's. Hurrah for surreal ceramics!
