Jade and marble critters

[isabella1]

Are these anything good or just tourist pieces? One is a Buddha then I'm guessing marble, jade and petrified wood maybe? Any thoughts?

I'm guessing from the identical pose on most of the elephants, that these are similar to the ones you can find new on ebay for a couple bucks (at least I only buy them when they're that cheap), usually from China - type in "carved elephant" for example, to see. Probably not petrified wood, maybe jasper? The grey is maybe snowflake obsidian? (can't tell from picture, but if you google it, that will help you.) They're cute, and many people collect dophins and elephants, so that's good. The one with the knot is a rat? mouse? rabbit? - search "carved jade" on ebay and see what you can find.

Hope that helps.

Seems to be common things but thanks for posting I love learning more..

Not particularly valuable, but I can never pass them up when I find them in the 1-2 dollar range. Nice finds.
