This is a Bronze Wall plaque with hanging loop attached to the back. It depicts two roosters on a tree with a bird (dove?) flying overhead. It has what appears to me to be chinese writing on the back around a mark cast into the bronze.
This piece has a few cosmetic scratches and the feet will probably need to be resurfaced. Other than that it is in great condition. It has the original tag pasted to the underside of the lid with the date it was made, serial number and style number. It also comes with a removeable tray.
we have about 8 antique puppets, a devil, a WW2 marine, native american,a mad scientist, skeleton, witch, 2 african american puppets.
This were found in a old house when we purchased the house a while back, they were in a antique looking trunk, the house was sold to us with everything in it, such as furniture etc etc.
Can someone please tell me how old they are and if worth anything? I'm including pictures, any help will be greatly aprreciated
29" diameter. 27.5" high cherry finish table. Mother claims it's over 100 years old. No manufacturer's markings, though appears hand made based on how the legs adjoin the stem. Wood is free of cracks, but water stained on the top.
