[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 396960, member: 2844"]Agree, I wouldn't dwell too much on age. It is not an antique, and whether 1960s or 70s doesn't really matter that much. What sells is that they are elephants, and who doesn't like elephants? These elephant puppets were probably already made in the 1400s and still made today. Traditional is a good term to use, as is vintage, which would apply in this case imo. Not sure the 1920s one is that old. It looks antiqued to me. And a week in the water of the klongs of Bangkok will probably give it the same look.:eek:[/QUOTE]
