[QUOTE="danrun, post: 4441126, member: 74448"]Hey, In my previous post, I failed to add more pictures, so I'm creating a new thread. Long story short, I bought this figure from an antique shop in Sri Lanka (don't know anything about its reputation). One thing I know is that a few brass vases I bought were truly old. Some people (not experts in antiques) say it could be brand new, but one collector and art dealer on another forum claimed the patina and everything look genuine. Here are all the pictures I took in two links: [URL]https://imgur.com/a/CaLvNwH[/URL] [URL]https://imgur.com/a/YRCL9D3[/URL] The dealer I bought it from said the figure is about 50-75 years old. What do you think?[/QUOTE]
