<p>[QUOTE=&quot;springfld.arsenal, post: 57719, member: 54&quot;]Thanks, much better pix.&nbsp; I&#039;m no expert, still learning myself.&nbsp; The patina looks better close up but I can&#039;t tell if the bronze losses are casting defects or corrosion or something intentional to make it look like corrosion losses.&nbsp; Probably needs hands-on exam to tell.&nbsp; The headgear/hairdo might be Japanese.&nbsp; I can&#039;t find anything like it!&nbsp; The most unique thing seems to be the base/pedestal portion, so if u can find another like it u will be heading the right direction.&nbsp; The broken arms (inside them) may reveal something about the casting technique.</p><p><br /></p><p>So up close in the new pix I can see that this object is completely different from about anything I&#039;ve seen and u will need to look for other bronzes with some detail or details in common.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
