Subject:carved hard stone Buddha statue
Posted By: David Mon, Jun 29, 2015 IP: 99.236.194.58 Hello all! I recently acquired this unusual carved hard stone Buddha statue in it's original box from the estate of an elderly Asian lady; it is marked "52",in marker, on the bottom. Has anyone seen this style of carving and perhaps associate it with an artist? Any assistance with this query would be greatly appreciated! Thank you! David. |
