Here are some photos of some of my thogchags. Any opinions about them are welcomed. Also, I would like to know any techniques on how to test them for authenticity.

These look good! I have no doubts about the first two. The third is a standard khyung design, probably from Amdo, and is usually found in less used condition. It's probably OK, but I'd want to handle it to be sure.

Do you have high-res photos of the first two pieces? I am writing a book on thogchags, and these two would be welcome illustrations. If you want them included, please send me photos of front and back at no less than 300 dpi, lighted as evenly as you can (these are pretty good), together with exact dimensions in centimetres and any info you might have about the subject and the region they are from. If you want to talk about this, or about thogs in general, please email me directly. Thanks!
