<p>[QUOTE="CheersDears, post: 403765, member: 2131"]The old lady could do with a lick of paint from some demented Italian parishioner and was bought at a struggling Sydney auction house more than 20 years ago. The auctioneer rated her a bit and I do, too. (I am easily pleased <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" /> ) She is about 11 inches tall, has obvious repairs and is very hand-made from a dull, grey clay. The man ... can't remember where he came from but he is 12 inches tall and has that stamp which someone might recognise. Any suggestions as to the woman's age and origin would be appreciated, and an ID of the man would be grand. Thanks.[ATTACH=full]140655[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]140656[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]140657[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]140658[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]140659[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]140660[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]140661[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
