I received this artifact from a friend but wasn't given much information on what it is. All I know is that it is probably Asian, has different metals, seems to be pretty old, and has a large gold dragon on it. I would really like to know what time period it is from, what country it is from, what it was used for, and how much it is worth. If you know anything about this artifact, please let me know! Thank you very much.
What I know about the artist is that he went to school in montreal (art history). He is also a photographer and won first prize in 1973 at "the hotel dieu de montreal". He owned an art gallery in Ste-Adele, Quebec.
This is a planter. Can anyone tell me if it is old. it is fabulous and unique. It is unmarked on the bottom and has a ton of detail and the eyes are wonderfully done. Is it old, and where made?
