No one ever sees this without commenting. You'll see! 22kt gold plated ceramic c. 1970s. Excellent condition. The only rubbed area I found was 1/4" in diameter on top of the man's head (see last photo). The Jaru sticker came off and was lost years ago. FREE SHIPPING!

Jaru sculptures are typically marked with a simple paper sticker or an impressed mark into the material itself. Depending on the specific piece and the decade it was produced, you might also find markings done by hand in ink on certain components.

Common Marking Methods
Authentic Jaru pieces often feature one or more of the following:
Original Paper Stickers: These are the most common identifiers. They often mention "Jaru USA" or "Jaru of California". Some stickers even specify the finish, such as "18k Gold Finish".
Impressed Marks: Some pieces have the "Jaru" name or a year stamped or impressed directly into the clay or base material during production.
Handwritten Marks: On specific items, such as those with wood sections, you may find the name "Jaru USA" marked by hand in ink. See less
