<p>[QUOTE="springfld.arsenal, post: 282927, member: 54"]"...willingness to pay" caught my attention. Maybe English is a second language for you? Anyway I wasn't sure what we were supposed to do with that part of your question, since we usually don't give valuations here. We don't have nearly enough information to guess what these are worth on the market. The little metal plates on the bases are pretty important, as is knowing exactly what base metal was used. Most of the sculptures posted on this forum, which the poster describes as bronze, turn out to be Plated spelter. I'd guess the darker of your sculptures is spelter, or possibly both. I can tell you are new to this field by your belief that one item may be bronze-plated brass, because brass doesn't reproduce very small details, whereas both spelter and bronze do. It kind of sounds like you've been thinking of buying a Pegasus sculpture and want help choosing one of these two. ??[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
