Brass Deer Figurines

Made in India or so? Artifact replicas or just fantasy pieses?

 

They look African. Try keyword combos of: African tribal bronze gold weight ashanti akan Chiwara antelope gazelle. Hone it down from there.

Very similar stuff comes up with those words. And ick! eek! some of those figurines are very pornographic, so be forewarned!

 

Looks like a composite metal over plate. Id'e say tourist souvenir figurines. Not worth anything - sorry!

 

They're attractive. I'd put them out at Christmas with some greenery around them and let other people make of them what they will.

 

Thanks Laura.
Composite metal over plate?

 

Looks like electroplating/forming over resin,etc. Many objects being made in China............. https://www.google.com/search?q=bra...sVQKHVrYBfoQ_AUICygC&biw=1436&bih=758#imgrc=_

 

Is that a feather or a horn coming out of the "head up" critter's face?

Are they heavy or light weight?

 

I don't know how it looks like but they are cast brass.

 

Some type of sand casting and they didn't clean the sand out of the ears?

 

I was wondering what that is.
They look like they're covered with gold leaf, so maybe the red dirt came later.

 

Now now, leave the political commentary out of this.

 

I noticed that too, and think he transposed what he meant to say. Been there, done that.... so I can translate with ease and carry on, LOL.

I do this with my mom everyday. I know what she means, despite what she actually says.

 

Found similar pieces but don't know if mine are older or more recent.
