<p>[QUOTE="BSimon, post: 4268089, member: 21774"]Thanks so much for this insight! I was not aware that this was a genre of tourist art, but knowing this , it makes more sense. There is no white pigment. but it is carved in a soft, light-colored wood with a shiny waxy black patina applied.My mother purchased it 24 years ago in a little shop on 1st Avenue in NYC that was probably frequented by interior designers.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
