    Hi I picked this up today at my local thrift shop. I'm trying to find one similar but had no luck. I'm not sure what it's made out of. Maybe bronze? Any info would be great thank you!

    It could be an original but a load of these were faked (well, reproduced I should say) in materials other than metal in the late 20thc

    I looked at the spot and it was a little dust build up on a little indentation on it. I was able to wipe it off.

    Get the cloth off. If there's a mark, and I'm thinking WMF, it will be beneath it.
