    Description

    This brass Burmese (now Myanmar) tattoo weight dates from the late 19th century - early 20th century. It is in the figural shape of a demon and was used to add weight to a separate tattoo needle (not included).
    This weight was purchased with and has always been displayed in a custom made stand. It has not been taken out of the stand for more than 25 years. The weight is 5 3/4" tall and has a nice heft. The patina has not been touched for at least 25 years as well.
    Note: the first image was taken outside to provide another view of features. The remaining photos were taken indoors and these represent the actual color.
