[QUOTE="journeymagazine, post: 303372, member: 84"]I've had this a few years - I think I got it at an estate sale. It is a carving of 2 lions fighting over the head of a ox/steer one of them had killed. It is really something - I didn't believe it was real wood or made from one piece, but looking at it closely with a magnifying glass shows that it is! It measures 17" tall x 13" wide at base and it is VERY heavy. The wood has been stained. There is no artist signature anywhere on it. Any idea where it's from? It's age? Value? Any information/thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
