<p>[QUOTE=&quot;LoveTheHunt!, post: 423975, member: 8191&quot;]I like Asian arts, but don&#039;t know enough about them. This pair of ceramic figures is another consignment, but I don&#039;t know enough specifics about them to guess whether they might even be worth the hundred$ the owner is thinking of...</p><p>&nbsp; The figures are 7 to 8&quot; long; they have flat backs and a hole for hanging, like wall pockets - but rather than actual pockets, they have small holes like a flower frog - so what do I call them?</p><p>&nbsp; Both have only a hole at the bottom where one would expect to see a 2nd foot; I assume that is by design, not something missing?</p><p>&nbsp; The woman&#039;s foot is tiny, and I thought something was amiss, until I realized that must represent a bound foot. Even so, it seems odd it is a separate piece attached inside a hole, rather than molded in as is the man&#039;s foot. It also makes that leg look short - does that look like an issue to you?</p><p>&nbsp; They are also quite grimy. I tried to clean with soapy water, ammonia cleaner, and denatured alcohol, all of which barely touched the heavily soiled areas.</p><p>&nbsp; SO - I&#039;m posting big pictures from several angles, and welcome any comments regarding purpose, age, origin, condition, value, etc.&nbsp; I&#039;m not so impressed by these, and don&#039;t want to waste my time trying to sell them for some ridiculous amount; yet, I have been wrong before, and don&#039;t want to write them off without good reason...</p><p>[ATTACH=full]148197[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]148198[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]148199[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]148200[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]148201[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
