Subject:Help identifying Chinese bronze deer marks
Posted By: Devon Nicks Thu, Nov 07, 2019 IP: 71.237.117.85

Any help greatly appreciated! I have a pair of mirror image bronze Deers. Large size, each standing on a bronze box that was possibly used as an incense burner. The boxes have multiple markings. I have included photos of one statue.
