<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Pat P, post: 89453, member: 201&quot;]Thanks to a discussion on the old Antiques board a few years ago, I know this is depicting the myth of Atalanta and Meleager. I never figured out what it&#039;s made of, though. After the board helped me identify the myth, I found the original online vessel, which was centuries old and had been sold on Christie&#039;s.</p><p><br /></p><p>Does it look like the material is one of those compositions that&#039;s resin-based but includes other substances? It&#039;s cool to the touch, weighs more than resin normally would, and doesn&#039;t feel like plastic. I tried the not needle test on the bottom, but the needle didn&#039;t penetrate.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ve never found another one of these in my searches, so assume it was a relatively-limited museum reproduction. Does that sound right?</p><p><br /></p><p>How would you describe the material in a listing?</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]22714[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]22715[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]22716[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]22717[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]22718[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
