Re: jade figurines of soldiers

It's difficult to say where the figures were made, but the bearded man with arm outstretched in a revolutionary salute in one picture looks a bit like Ho Chi Minh. The material doesn't look very much like either of the true jades, nephrite or jadeite, in my opinion.

Best regards,

Bill H.
