[QUOTE="kardinalisimo, post: 46782, member: 118"]Samson marks are known to have been removed to hide the real identity of the pieces. Some of their products were not marked at all. To me Op's and the one from the link look the same but I will try to compare them closely. These are not classic Chinese foo dogs as you already know. Such would never be produced for the domestic market. However, when Chinese did pieces for export they would incorporate Western features, sometimes. Anyway, the old Samson pieces have their own collectors value and some are selling pretty expensive. They've been sold at Christies.[/QUOTE]
