Well, it came from china, unfortunately it is a fake. It was made around the late 20th century, if this was a genuine one it would be much more delicately carved, this one is wrather coarse and rough, the gold leaf was intentionally spplied to immitate an ancient buddhist custom of gold leafing important statue. Their was never a second arm, it was carved without one to immitate a salvaged antique damaged over the years. If it were real, id would be worth thousands, perhaps hundreds of thousands. It still has value as a decorator piece, although not much more than $100. Most asian antiques these days are fakes, sorry.
