Long Description
Set of two ivory horses, one with mark on the saddle I cannot decipher. Â It appears naturally aged with some handling wear areas - perhaps it was used at some point as a child's toy?
I have submitted this for expert appraisal but want to know anything I can about it. Â I love learning the stories behind antiques (presuming this is genuine). Â I purchased it at the estate auction of a wealthy Chinese family in CA.
