Description

My husband found at a garage sale about 15 years ago. It has very detailed carvings and etchings. Looks Chinese. Picture quality is bad, it appears alot darker than really is. It's dark tan in color but alot lighter than photos. Anyone have any idea what , how old and where its from??

Re: vase

Probably resin or hong kong ivory

Re: vase

would you have any idea what it may be worth for either of those ? What about the origin? THanks

Re: vase

Get a straight pin and heat it with a lighter, really hot. Stick it in the bottom, if it goes in then it is plastic or resin. if not then it is bone or ivory.
