Chinese Ceremonial Battle Axes? |
Posted By: rat Posted Date: Jan 26, 2015 (09:22 AM) |
Message They are indeed made of stone and metal but they are also reproductions/imitations of Chinese weapons. Ernst and others who comment here on jade objects and other stone objects can tell you a bit about the aging and distressing techniques the Chinese use on stone. It's possible these are more than a decade or two old, but I very much doubt they precede the early 20th century. Post a Response |
