Subject:Box of Chinese Porcelain Heads
Posted By: Jane Shehan Fri, Aug 29, 2014 IP: 97.72.77.70 I bought this quirky box of heads. I have no idea where they came from or the age. Anyone seen these before? Each one has a mark on the back. I can send someone a closer image of the mark if needed. |

Posted By: rat Tue, Sep 02, 2014 Chinese, made within the last few decades, characters from a drama or literary work. Pictures of the labels might help identify them. |

Posted By: meso Tue, Sep 16, 2014 a guess would be that these were made to be the heads for the chinese operatic puppet shows.they would be stuck on bamboo frames with the corresponding costumes. |
