<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Arrigo, post: 4250974, member: 20892&quot;]I have tried a few places with no luck, but I have a wooden sculpture that has been in my family for at least 40+ years (I saw it in our house as a child, so I know it’s at the least 30yrs old but can’t imagine it was made right before then). </p><p><br /></p><p>I can’t find any identifying marks on it, but I’m not really formidable with how they would sign these.&nbsp; The closest resembling sculpture I could find was from Noemi Schindler (almost identical to mine just that one is brass and crude looking). Mine is smooth and more defined. </p><p><br /></p><p>I know the pictures will pretty much do all the justice but, beyond that it’s 16 inches tall, about 5lbs in weight.&nbsp; The width of it is roughly 4-6 inches.&nbsp; The wood is black, it hasn’t been painted over at all so I know it’s not black from paint.&nbsp; We are from Bedford&nbsp; NY, near Greenwich CT.&nbsp; The best background I can give you beyond that is we knew a lot of people and came from a privileged area.&nbsp; I acquired this from my grandparents who raised me, who are both passed now.&nbsp; I’m just trying to figure out who and what this is from.&nbsp; I have it on show in my house but always look at it wishing I knew more.&nbsp; My grandfather was a giant collector of many things, none of which were ever really of no value, so any help would be greatly appreciated!</p><p><br /></p><p>By the way, it’s definitely dusty and I can’t bring myself to try and clean it because I don’t want to damage it.</p><p><br /></p><p>I can’t upload an image to the forum too large of a file but I made an Imgur of all my pictures.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://imgur.com/gallery/K9Q1pST" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://imgur.com/gallery/K9Q1pST" rel="nofollow">https://imgur.com/gallery/K9Q1pST</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
