    Can anyone help identify these statues? They each weigh approx 10lbs and stand 26" tall. The only info the previous owner had on them is that they purchased them back in the early 70's from a small antique store in their hometown. Any info on their origin, symbolic meaning, wood type and value would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank You

    Welcome! The experts will probably want pictures of the backs and underside as well.

    Not a traditional style, which makes them difficult to identify.
