need info on antique japanese/chinese candle holders.?
bronze, hand carved, it has a dragon up top.four fu dogs around it. two eagles( i think) either side and two tigers. at very bottom four masks. it looks like a lot of time went into it. oh and it has a signature on the bottom. little knowledge please?
I can only assume that because your question has the word dragon in it, it suggested this category?
Anyhow, without seeing it I couldn’t even guess. Best off taking pictures and emailing them, or taking it to an antiques dealer for valuation.
