<p>[QUOTE="lpan9, post: 494929, member: 3788"]This might have an age around 100 years, however, antique soapstone items have a bad market in China because today's top Chinese soapstone carvers intentionally guided the market to favor their newly carved fine art figurines of super high prices. Those newly carved items are often as small as an egg but in very very fine details. They do it by fake-buying each other's carvings in gallery and auctions to push price high.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
