[QUOTE="KSW, post: 4428027, member: 8708"]Just wondering if I should pay these any attention or if they are junk? Pretty poor shape unfortunately. 2 bowls with similar but not identical patterns, each drawing is slightly different, one has a Foo ? dog and the other doesn’t . Both 13cm across. The material is very thin, lightweight and flexible and appears to be made internally of thin strips of wood with glue, a black coating and then a gold overlay. Is there a name for this technique for me to search? Google gives me a million unrelated hits. Modern worn out tat or vintage/antique? :confused: Any help welcome please as I’m clueless about these. Thankyou :-) [ATTACH=full]378808[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]378809[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]378810[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]378811[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]378812[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]378813[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]378814[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]378815[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
