Subject:Help Identifying this (Chinese?!?) Statue figure
Posted By: Jacob Michaud Sat, Mar 10, 2018 IP: 67.244.47.8
Hey all,

I recently bought this little totem at a flea market and I need help identifying him.

My best guess is that he is Shou, god of longevity. But there are some variations, particularly in the position of his hands, lack of staff and I can't identify what he is holding. Any help is appreciated!

Hello Jacob
Its really difficult to say much. There are many tourist pieces like this. You have to scratch test the base to see if its hard and post clearer pictures. Its not possible to say anything otherwise, hence your lack of answer from someone who might know. Best wishes D
