<p>[QUOTE="KikoBlueEyes, post: 5368855, member: 8363"]The shop I frequent got a large donation of bronzes. Tabletop size and very well done with crispness - all newer though. They sold like hotcakes for about $50-$85 each in a day. The donation included this small (nine inches tall) bust that I thought was much nicer even it is not bronze, and the bronze color that is painted on is peeling off. Please note the colors of my photos are off because it sucked all the light in. It is really a bronze color. It sits on a little onyx stand. I'm not sure if there is a signature. I highlighted a section that might have letters.</p><p><br /></p><p>I'm not sure who is being portrayed. She seems to have a headpiece and she has a snake between her breasts.
