Description
My folks were collecting chinese antiques, mostly old dynastys. They bought this pair of foo dogs , ivory in a Chinese Antique shop that used to be in the Houston Galleria. I do not know of the shop but my father said they store dealt in high end antiques and stuff. It was around 1971 so any help as to which store might have been there then or any info on which dynasty this pair was made in would be helpful to me. If someone would also give me a value on them. I am not interested at this time to sell them though might consider an offer. Any help would be grateful. Thank you . paleoal
