Subject:maybe old jomon object
Posted By: francis minvielle Sat, Sep 19, 2026 IP: 82.226.118.25

Is it some replica? The side view let me think it was molded in two halves, but was it the usual way to make it originally?

From what I have read the Jomon culture did not use press molding or piece molds to make their figurines. They are said to have relied on a combination of coiling and hand modeling.

You confirm my belief it is a copy...
Thanks a lot!
