Tall brass object. May be an insense burner or similar. Not sure
I dont know the history. Several items in fathers inheritance
Dear Otttomeyer,
Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry. My sincere apologies for the delay with the appraisal.
The presented object appears to be a lampstand with unknown measurements. This piece is connected with brass or rain drum are ceremonial objects for rain dances. This piece was made in Southeast Asia. in the 20th century.
Sadly no additional information for an artist with this name fitting in style and motif is given by reference books and databases.
Comparable objects were recently offered and sold on the international auction market.
This piece is in good condition and there is no serious damage visible in the images provided.
A fair market estimation would be between 100 to 250 USD.
This estimate is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparable items. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and may vary.
With kind regards,
George
