1stbuddha Expertise
Craftsmanship: The minute differences in mass and height between both statues attest to an individual, manual casting using the traditional 'lost-wax' method.
Forensic Traces: Internal examination of the casting cavity revealed heavily oxidized iron casting wires and traces of ritual vermilion powder. The presence of heavy mineral crystallization within the bronze confirms the long history of this pair. These tracks prove that the lions truly served as ceremonial guardians before being included in a private collection.
Each object is examined before it is offered: material, casting or carving technique, surface, and signs of age are compared with documented references. You will receive a certificate of authenticity and an official invoice detailing the period, material, and available provenance.
