[QUOTE="LoveTheHunt!, post: 651401, member: 8191"]Here is another interesting consignment item. As usual, though I like Asian art, I am sadly lacking in knowledge thereof... This 11-1/2" tall pottery figure of an old man holding a scroll in one hand weighs 5 lbs. and is glazed with white and rust red (orange), except exposed body parts (head and hands) being unglazed. The face is very nicely done! (He could use some cleaning, but I'll hold off on that, for now, at least.) The unglazed bottom has 2 small impressed characters. I'll upload some large pix, would appreciate any pointers at as regarding to age, origin, style, potential value, etc. THANX AGAIN to you who are always so willing to share your expertise!
