    katherines…

    So this beautiful bust depicts a Chinese lady in a very high Mandarin collar with her hair loose down her shoulders. The styling and typical silver gold gilding of Mid Century Modern design. 10" with a felt base and initials incised near the base which I can't make out. Appears to be D + HB, but I've found nothing online like that, or DTHB or DHB. If anyone can help with that, greatly appreciated.

    Thanks for looking.

      Is she gilded pottery or a resin, Katherine? (note my use of the Oxford comma there so it didn't seem like I was asking if you were resin or pottery - sometimes I get my English good. No, gooder. Um... righter!! that's it!!)

      Thanks for the love, NevadaBlades, and racer4four. :)

      Karen, clay if I'm not mistaken with the gilding over. You're much gooder than I am at the English language!! ;))
