Info on small brass Foo lion/dog I excavated recently |
Posted By: John Chapman Posted Date: Oct 21, 2016 (04:21 PM) |
Message Hi- I found this small brass dog/lion about 20 yards from a c1760 house in the lower Shenandoah Valley with my metal detector last week and I think it may be a variety of foo dog/lion, but I have not found any which match it in my limited research. I would love to know more about it, particularly its' age and what it was attached or affixed to. There is a small trace of gilt remaining under the nose. Any help or info would be most appreciated! Thanks in advance, John |
