<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Van_Poperin, post: 3258743, member: 16501&quot;]If you get it carbon dated you will have an idea of how old the wood is, not necessarily the horse, because wood can be recycled. So actually you can “fake age” which is one of the ways in which museums and collectors get fooled. And as [USER=8267]@2manybooks[/USER] points out, the fact it is wood makes it more recent than the ceramic horses in places like the British Museum that are considered “real”. However, if an an accredited auction house or museum recognises the style or (best of all) finds documents for manufacture or production, then I don’t think anyone here would argue. It could well be Victorian. It is very nice, and I sincerely encourage you to get it checked out. Tang horses are very famous, you won’t struggle to find someone who knows without doubt.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
