Also on the base is evidence that at one time there was a second rooster or hen. That figure has broken off and is missing. The barrel napkin holder is atop a mass of branches. The second napkin ring has a very large kangaroo standing by the napkin holder. The piece is marked 'EPNS' and is probably Australian. It is also marked 'Stewart Dawson'.

Last napkin ring in lot has a leaf base that supports the napkin holder on a ball and a small emu. Piece has no markings but is assumed to be Australian.
