[QUOTE="Gatoblanconz, post: 11597874, member: 14927"]Looking for a socle or other mini stand replacement to elevate this bust which is missing its socle. It looks much better elevated. I put a clear plastic yoghurt lid underneath and even bringing the bottom 1cm off the ground made it present much better. So I am looking for something to elevate the bottom. And something that is smaller than the bottom so the sides of the bottom extend out. The history/provenance etc have been discussed in this thread [URL]https://www.antiquers.com/threads/are-these-busts-the-same.49539/[/URL] I dont need any more info on that. So this thread here is just about suggestions about what to use to replace the socle for presentation purposes. Here is mine: [ATTACH=full]545798[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]545799[/ATTACH] And here is the same piece with a socle: [ATTACH=full]545800[/ATTACH] Thanks everyone[/QUOTE]
