Description I can't upload a picture at this time because i've misplaced my SD memory card. But it's in good shape, and i couldn't even find a picture on google images to say it's similar to this. Nothing similar to this on ebay either. I'll try to get a picture up asap. But it's really nice, originally came with a 3-leg wooden bottom that folded out, but that was lost in a move.

<p>Hard to say without a picture, but there&#39;s not a lot on bronze here.  In my research on bronze and brass (we inherited a bit also), unless it is really, really old, or signed/marked, or of particular artistic interest/quality, it seems to sell a bit over weight value if you are lucky.  This is especially true of items from India, Persia area, as the artists were paid peanuts so theoretically, from, what I&#39;ve read &quot;adds no value to the piece.&quot;  My submission is bronze too, take a look.</p><p>Get a pic up!</p>

<p>Patsheba&#39;s quite right, these were cranked out for the tourist market from the turn of the 19th Century until the present with very little difference in design . We see hundreds of them every year, most sell for less than 150.00 at auction.</p><p>Lovejoy </p>
