[QUOTE="Miscstuff, post: 309928, member: 1331"]Don't normally go for carved figurines but this lot looked to have a high quality and a certain quirkiness so I gambled AU$45 on them. The seated lady appears to have been by FA Pan Akus a master carver in Bali sometime between 1945 and 1960. and I suspect the standing lady may be the same but I'll need to remove the felt to check. Haven't found anything on the carver who did the native girl de-husking the coconut but suspect it is from the same era. The naked torso thing has got me. Danish keyring holder??? The pointy hat guy looks fairly standard stuff. Then there is the stoned musician playing the accordion in some kind of leopard spotted wood. Lastly there are these two dogs(?) kissing/dancing?? There's a label underneath that I think reads “Salling” and I keep turning up Salling Keramic on google so not sure who done it. Think I might have scored with possibly two FA Pan carvings and I'm seriously tempted to keep the sitting lady. Some details. 1- 3.25kg 57cm high 2- 1.97kg 32cm high 3- 3.16kg 60cm high 4- 1.02kg 44cm high 5- 1.25kg 36cm high 6- 1.08kg 28cm high 7- 1.28kg 21.5cm high Cheers Stephen [ATTACH=full]102382[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]102383[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]102384[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]102385[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]102386[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]102387[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]102388[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]102389[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
