<p>[QUOTE="Brian Warshaw, post: 3746143, member: 16674"]I'd heard of mixed marble dust and resin, and thought it might be. What surprised me was the amount of detail, e.g. separation or fingers and toes. Previous to this I've only handled one of those long skinny Chinese figures (fake ivory) and they a full of flash. The cats and children have realistic eyes about 2mm with an iris in the centre.One can look up the hem of the girls dress; but I suppose silicone is wonderfully pliable.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
