I have a matador and bull in a shiny gold glaze with matte gold splotches…midas gold? weeping gold?…that I need identified and valued. The matador is in excellent condtion. The bull has a chip on the end of one horn. The ebay ad referenced below shows the exact same set in black. Thanks for any help.

Thank you, Wendy, for your response. Yes, I had searched online for both companies. I don’t have access to books. Although Haeger had a bull, it is different and the matadors I have found are also different. These pieces both have felt glued to the bottoms. Is it acceptable to soak the felt off to see if there are any markings under the felt, or was that commonly done?
