I wanted to revive this thread with a Buddhist Lion bottle that I recently acquired that is similar to the one George posted in this thread. The bottle seems to have age, but I cannot find this particular mold listed anywhere. There are big differences in this mold and the previous ones listed - the lion's arm is crooked up, the facial expression is different, the baby is facing to the side, etc. It's also very very dirty and appears to have some oxidation, but I'm afraid to clean it for fear that would damage it. Would appreciate opinions and would like to know if anyone else has seen this particular mold. Thanks!
