RELICS & ANTIQUITIES

I do not sell things that are obviously grave robbed and chunks of sculpture and buildings that could conceivably have been busted off of an intact object for the express purpose of selling on the antiquities market.  I try to stick to whole small objects, preferably with site data.  Almost everything "ancient" that I have does not come with official papers.  Almost all of it, except for Pakistan and China, did not come to me from the country of origin, but rather from "old" collections.  The Pakistan & China stuff came before the inception of the current restrictions.
