Description: This is a set of 12 Bronze Chinese Zodiac Animal Figurines, each in their own wood box signed and labeled in ink.These belonged to a friend who had them packed away for decades, so I don't know the specific vintage. I also cannot find any makers marks or labels.The animals range from approx. 30mm to 60 mm high (dog). The boxes are each 3" long x 2 1/4" high x 2" deep. The weights are as follows:Monkey 140 gramsHorse 195 gramsRooster 174 gramsPig 110 gramsRabbit 150 gramsSheep 172 gramsSnake 160 gramsTiger 164 gramsOx 172 gramsDragon 186 gramsDog 110 gramsRat 150 grams The figurines are in excellent shape, although there is some oxidation on the bottom of many of these. This is due to Bronze being a mix of Copper with Tin and/or Zinc, and being exposed to air over a long period of time. These are not damaged, but should be cleaned soon. I chose not to do so and leave it to the next owner, and I believe the price reflects this. A quick search of Bronze cleaning methods shows many ways to easily remove the oxidation, many with lemon juice.This comes with the 2 original packing boxes. The top is missing from the smaller box. Packed and padded well, and shipped immediately.Thanks for your interest!
