[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 275645, member: 2844"]Chinese resin, made to look like stained ivory. The large figure is Shou Xing, the God of longevity, recognizable by his long forehead and his snake/dragon staff (in this case more like a crane-headed staff). Shou Xing is the most popular of the Three Star Gods Fu Lu Shou. Because of all the many smaller figures, these vases are often called vase of the thousand figures, or hundred figures. I agree with Komo on the value, there are many of these, and they are still producing them.[/QUOTE]
