   How big is the item?  Looks like a chimenea, but appears to be small.

Thank you very much it is a chimenea like you said just a simple candle holder, it is about 12" high and about 5 wide at the bottom never heard of such item. Thanks again for your help

Antique Questions Forum / Help AMAZING FIND!!! Ivory sculpure, where did it come from

« on: May 09, 2011, 02:46:06 am »

 Help today i found an amazing find that i have never seen before this ivory statue and trying to find out as much as i can so far i beleive from my own research that its elephant ivory or possible mammoth. The statue is 19" tall and base is 4" wide. I cant find anything like it of nature and size.  My big question is determing who made it,  who this lady represents time period or region. Looks europeen too me maybe greek but just a guess for now. The owner wants to consign it to me for 2k i believe i can get that easy and well above the more information i have on it. Thank you very much
