<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mirana, post: 9614120, member: 79705&quot;]Thank you! They&#039;re very satisfying to &quot;save&quot; and uncover the surprise underneath. To be completely fair, the Bacchante I waited to buy for several months because I could tell she had a little damage on the right and she was priced quite high (to me) for her deplorable and unknown condition. But she haunted me. I could see the carver put great detail on her, she had nice proportions, and a fairly raised leaf effect. So I made an offer that was accepted and I crossed my fingers.</p><p><br /></p><p>The second one came in a very cheap lot of what the seller thought was costume cameos. So I knew if she was too far gone the investment was low.</p><p><br /></p><p>The more of them you see, the more you can identify the grime you know you can beat or reduce, I think.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
