    Picked up these two figures over the weekend. The bigger one is around 25 centimeters. I don't know anything about them and the smaller one has a little label underneath of what seems to be a catalogue number. I need help at least in finding out where they come from.

    New: I found out that they represent Sudhana also known as Shancai Tongzi. They are quite rare to find. And more in old sculpted figures. Next step, date them. I already asked to get them checked by an Asian art expert so, as soon as I know dates, I'll update this post once again.
