[QUOTE="Studio Antiques, post: 209021, member: 411"]Hey guys we have these two foo dog sculptures. Bookends maybe? They look to be hand carved. We are trying to figure out what kind of stone they are, also if anyone knows anything about the sticker tag on the bottom.[ATTACH=full]60875[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]60876[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]60877[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]60878[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]60879[/ATTACH] They appear to have a grey dust-like coat and when they get wet the stone is a dark green, but the stone absorbs the moisture quickly bringing it back to the grey color. Dimensions 8.5" x 4.5" x 3.75" Each weighs about 6 pounds. Thanks in advance.[/QUOTE]
