    I don't know much about this small metal (bronze?) statue. I'd love to hear anyone's comments re: identification, origin and / or age. Thank you!!

    Sweet girl. Those pointy shoulders certainly look Thai, but she is a folksy figurine, so it is dfficult to find something like her.

    Personal deity of some sort ? Seems too large to be a scale weight but WDIK ?

    I don't see anything that indicates a deity. Not all Asian bronzes are of deities.
    Not enough stability for scales.

    Do you think she might be a doll of sorts,or just a decorative piece (knickknack)?
