    I am unsure is these are resin or ivory. One is a Japanese woman and the other appears be be a Japanese woman also but a bust that appears to be art deco. Also anyone have any idea on the age of these

    To my eyes, the two are resin. First one has carved details though. But you can see tiny open bubbles and tiny ball blobs, which are the clues.
    First one may be Italian made.

    I see them too and drips under the first one's eyes. Resin can be carved.
