Description: This auction is for an Ancient Antique Relic 1000 yr-old Carved Figure Figurine Vase Artifact. Rare Archeological Finding. Please don't be fooled by the fact this Vase has been repaired. If correct, this Vase is Over 1000 years old and is a very good piece. I am not really sure what the figure represents. However, I am pretty certain it is over 1000 years old. Please view image and form your own conclusion. The paperwork shown is from the first gallery I contacted about this collection. The letter really speaks volumes about this material because they were so impressed that even in the midst of a family crisis they made getting back to me of the upmost priority. Please Note** Paperwork is not included. However, I will provide a Xerox copy of paperwork upon request by winning bidder. To me, Overall, Condition appears to be an Excellent specimen. This is one of the Best Vases in the Collection. You definitely cannot walk into a Department Store and buy one of these to put in your display case. If you love Vases and really want something Special and unique to display instead of the usual fodder then this item may be what you have been fishing for. As this catch is Fishing at its Finest. Please note** This and Every item part of this collection has been dug up. As far as price it is always difficult to put prices on these kinds of items. The truth is many of these items are considered priceless museum quality items. Basically, I try to think super reasonably and let logic dictate the price. As a rule of thumb I ask what would you want to sell this item if it was yours? Would you take $5? $50? $100? What would you want? Would you even sell it at all? The next logical question is if you went into a store to buy a special piece for the same purpose what would it cost? Tack a little bit on for supreme rarity and one of a kind uniqueness and that's how I arrive at what I think is a reasonable price. That being said, I am definitely open to all offers within reason. Please scroll down if you would like to learn more background information about this item. Please view scans carefully to determine condition for yourself. Basically, what you see is what you get... If you have any other questions please feel free to ask. This items come from a smoke free environment. The photos are the actual items. See Scans.. This will make a Great gift for that special someone. This item comes from a Huge Artifact Collection I purchased in the early 1990's which consisted of the lifework of Russell Royer. Plymouth's unofficial Archeologist Expert. Over 20 years and Thousands of pieces later, I am ready to let go of what is largely been saved as the Best for Last. Please Note** Even after all these years my knowledge of this material is very limited and I will only say what I believe to be true and accurate from what I have been told. Many expert people looked at this collection over the years and not everyone is always in agreement to exactly what things are etc.. The Only thing everyone has Always agreed on is that Every piece offered has been dug up and is Very old. Hundreds to thousands of years old and mostly from the very rare to the extremely rare. Thus, there are No fake or reproductions. However, there is an occasional archival repair that was done prior to my acquiring it. I will note such a repair in the ad description.
