Hi Detlef,
All part of the game the agree and disagree. Some people like Audi, I still think the Lexus is better for the money....well maybe not on wet European roads
Respectfully I disagree with the dirt covered items in the images being old. The thick covering of dirt and odd looking bristle like hair are my first concerns.
A passage associated with the subject.
"Wooden sculpture can be buried in soil, tied to an embankment, and thrown into a fast flowing river, broken, fed to insects, smoked, stained, dyed, burnt, waxed, oiled, polished, painted or even given to the dog to play with. Statues that have been buried are easy to spot, as soil will have penetrated into every hole and crevice, sculpture that has been knocking up and down in a river for a few months will look bleached, and contain sand and small pebbles. The last two methods are very popular with fake Dayak material."
