<p>[QUOTE="rink28, post: 648661, member: 2498"]Hi, i was at my local thrift shop the other day and went back for an item that i passed up the first time but when i went back it was gone unfortunately. Then i was looking around instead of leaving right away and found these doves/pigeons. I am wondering if these are cast iron or pot metal? If i had to guess mine appear to be cast iron but wasnt for sure. I did find a few that were on google images and i will provide a few links to the ones i found. Also mine appear to be more of a browner patina to them than the ones i have found online. I paid 10.00 for both. If anyone could provide a little more information on age (if they are from the 50s) and if they are cast iron that would be great thanks! I will provide a few link below. </p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.rubylane.com/item/260004-2999/Japanese-Patinated-Cast-Iron-Dove-Pigeon" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.rubylane.com/item/260004-2999/Japanese-Patinated-Cast-Iron-Dove-Pigeon" rel="nofollow">https://www.rubylane.com/item/260004-2999/Japanese-Patinated-Cast-Iron-Dove-Pigeon</a></p><p><a href="https://www.antiquesnavigator.com/d-1748778/lot-4-vintage-cast-iron-pigeons-occupied-japan-unique-bird-set-genuine-patina.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.antiquesnavigator.com/d-1748778/lot-4-vintage-cast-iron-pigeons-occupied-japan-unique-bird-set-genuine-patina.html" rel="nofollow">https://www.antiquesnavigator.com/d-1748778/lot-4-vintage-cast-iron-pigeons-occupied-japan-unique-bird-set-genuine-patina.html</a></p><p><br /></p><p>The one one rubylane you will have to scroll down to see the listing.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]184033[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]184034[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]184035[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]184036[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]184037[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]184038[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]184040[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
