Item id: 324

This is a lovely Chine bronze Buddhist bronze with 3 Buddhas. A friend quite knowledgable in Chinese bronzes believed it to be Ming, although the style looks much earlier. Another collector felt that it might not be so old. This is not my area of expertise, so I cannot date it precisely, but I will guarantee that it is an authentic antique piece and not one of the modern Chinese bronze copies flooding Ebay. It stands 2 and 5/8 inches high. It has good wear and a wonderful original patina. Bought from an old collection many years ago.
