    I'll try not to put you to sleep.
    ( Sorry for going on so in my last post ).
    This I love.
    The label is it's only identity, Italian!
    The carving of it, the story of it, enchants me.
    It's approximately 10+1/2" inches in diameter.

    I hope that someone can tell me something more about it.

    Thank You,
    Tony.

      Could this be a replica of a Fresco(sp) Maybe from a wax pressing from the actual , and then cast? I like it! Good for you.

      It really is intriguing. Can I ask in one of the Italian FB pages ?
    10. PostCardCollector PostCardCollector, 9 years ago
      I should assume you can. That is a great idea. I am on Facebook, but never have tried out of USA. That would certainly help answer a lot of questions on this site. Let us know!

      I had an artist friend who did "lost wax castings" and her statues and things always showed a light "grit" on places on the item. Sand did play a part in her art objects--do you note any of that on your piece? That might tell the story!!
    16. Budek Budek, 9 years ago
      Hello PostCardCollector,
      Yes, I think there is a rustic, 'sandy' quality to much of it. Hopefully we'll learn more in time. Thanks for keeping this in mind, I appreciated it!
      Have a good night,
      Tony.
    17. PostCardCollector PostCardCollector, 9 years ago
      WOW--Then it must have been a cast taken from a "fresco" which I still think I can't spell--and maybe in the sand cast wax process my my friend the artist made. I think that may be a very obscure item! I think it is very special Good for you!

      That must have been less than a dollar back then. Really nice piece.
