Description
This 12 inch tall fragment of a sculpture was purchased at an Estate Sale years ago. Bonham Butterfields Auction House was unable to ascertain whether this is an original or a very old fake, but they thought it looked like it originated from Ancient Crete. They suggested that I ship it to London for analysis, but that is quite expensive to do. Also the Getty Museum antiquities specialist found it very interesting but she wrote me that it is out of Getty Museum's field of collecting and expertise. (If you send me your email address, I gladly send you copies of the correspondence.) It has lots of wear. I am not sure whether this is stone, or clay. Used to be on a stand and there is still a hole from the metal rod at the bottom. Very heavy. Could be worth a lot of money. Will be professionally packaged at the UPS Store. Payment is due within 10 days after the end of auction. Insurance required. Check out my other auctions for more antiques, art, and interesting items. Add me to your Favorite Sellers. Thank you !
