Two Chinese porcelan Vases from the Ming Dynasty. A gift to my Grandfather who was an ambassador in Beijing, China. The gift was from a chinese official in the 1970s. The Vases are supposedly 200-300 years old from the Ming Dynasty.
The female figurine is holding a torch in one hand a book in the other her foot is on a drum A wreath of flowers surrounds her Torso I think it could be spelter..I believe it dates to the late 19th century. It is HEAVY. This lamp is from the well known French sculptor Auguste Moreau and are signed as such (see photo). T is also a mark in the figurine on the back that says says "Fabrication Francaise" then "Paris" and "Made in France".
