Long Description
This is what appears to be a brass statue of a yogi in a lotus position with a weighted copper base and a marking on the bottom that is also on the palm of the yogi's hand. I know it was purchased somewhere in the East but not much more. I'm trying to find if anyone knows anything about this kind of statue and approximate value.Â
History
My grandparents purchased it on a trip to the Orient many years ago but that is all I know.
