Salvation Army Find.. Ceramic Mermaid Potpourri Holder (??)

     Hello vintage lovers!! I broke a rule today.... Since I do buy a lot of items and I am trying to be selective I told myself that broken items can not be purchased. What is the point to buy a broken item, right?? Well today I found this pretty lady for .69 I never find mermaid figures ever, so when I seen this girl my heart jumped..... but as you can see my excitement dwindled because her. hand. is. missing.... I put her in my cart and tried to talk myself out of the purchase but just could not. So I have decided that I am going to try to fix her, maybe glue a shell there to look like she is holding it?? We shall see but for the price I want to try. I am not sure what exactly she was meant to do. She has two holes on her head, one hole in her back and a hole on the bottom. I was thinking maybe a potpourri holder in a bathroom?? I tried all day to research her but can't find this exact one, I did find 2 that looked similar but they only said they are figures from the 50s. She has a very pretty face and other than her missing hand no other issues. I am hoping to be able to save her, I do believe she was worth my broken rule!
