Subject:Re: Bone ivory or cast Chinese geisha
Posted By: Mark Adams Wed, Dec 18, 2019 Your pictures are a bit blurry and dark. However I think your statue is made from resin and not ivory. |
Subject:Re: Bone ivory or cast Chinese geisha
Posted By: Bill H Thu, Dec 19, 2019 This appears to be a 1920s-30s European chinoiserie creation, cast in a resinous composite, given a faux oriental marking and glued to the stand. France and England are high on the list of usual suspects as source nations. Such pieces remain favorites among interesting and usually affordable collectibles. |
