Dear Roland,
Would you mind uploading an image of the base of your carved wood Buddha figure?
Thank you very much,
Erin-Marie
Dear Roland, thank you for adding the image of the base to the system. You have a hand-carved Tibetan Buddha figure from the 20th century. Similar style and age Buddha sculptures are currently selling at auction for between $100USD and $225USD. If you have any additional questions, let me know and thank you for taking the time to submit to Mearto.
Sincerely,
Erin-Marie
Photo of the bottom of the Buddha has been added. Does not appear to be any markings.
