Curator Analysis
This unrestored masterpiece displays a deep, natural green and brown patina that bears witness to centuries of oxidation. Original mineral and salt deposits were found on the inside of the open casting, irrefutably confirming its authenticity and long presence in ceremonial spaces. The absence of modern interventions preserves the pure, honest energy of the object.
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.
