Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it, follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!
I don't know what this statue is worth (Not safe for prudes/work?)

I have a statue that I don't know the value of. It has made in japan on the bottom. I don't know where it came from and I am unable to find anything even remotely like it. I purchased it at an antiques shop here in Hillsboro,or.

That's the whole point of the thread though. Something to substantiate that it's either worthless or very valuable. I would say that the antiques shop that I purchased it from is less then stellar with antiques.

I'll try later since my cellphone doesn't have a macro mode. It comes out all blurry.
Esh, I looked and I've looked. It may very well be mass produced. I just want to know if there are many of them still left. Quite a few of them might of been destroyed during WW2. But again, I'm looking for proof.

Out of curiosity, how much did you pay for it?
The goal of our founding fathers was freedom. The goal of our current politicians is control.
'made in japan' was used starting sometime around 1921. that's old enough to make it possibly be somewhat valuable.
not very likely though.
the made in japan stamp doesn't make it worthless.
I think like 40$? I wouldn't of paid anything over that though. I figure it's worth about that much probably. But again, I can't find a single thing about this.

The fact that there is no maker's mark leads me to believe it's not worth much.
Very expensive China (ironically from Japan) is very expensive and is marked with made in japan marks. Usually depends on the look of the mark though.
Honestly, that doesn't really look like much of anything or very old. I'd expect something from very long ago to have some kind of cracking of the glaze or have some kind of patina.
I'm not expecting this to be worth a lot. I bought it because I liked it and the price wasn't too bad.

"If you don't know who Kendra is, I'm officially not speaking to you."
Regardless, if you like the look of it and are ok with what you paid for it, then be glad you got it.
Forget about it.
How do you know? Based on the positioning of the arms, it doesn't look like it would be possible to make that statue from a mold. Unless you're molding the arms separately and attaching them.
Thanks, This is definitely good advice here. I didn't think about a porcelain site.

Some things that are mass produced are quite sought after by collectors and therefore valuable.
If I were you, I would seek out a forum devoted to collecting porcelain, or whatever material you think it's made from. Because unless there happen to be some porcelain statue collectors lurking on PA, no one here is going to be able to give you an informed opinion on whether it's worth something or worthless.
