Description

Bust of a child in period close dated 1768.  Artwork of the head is in very good condition.  No damage.   The base has a drilled hole in the back.  Appears to be modified for a lamp.   The base and the head has come unglued.  If it is valuable, I would rather an expert glue it back together.
