About the Item

An elegant, dynamic, fully finished, 19th century terracotta sculpture of richly attired figures in the Chinoiserie style. The idealized, rural imagery features two women in flowing robes beside a fence; one seated on a tassled carpet, and another standing, grasping a handful of blossoms. They observe a boy at play with roosters. The whole mounted on a hand-carved, 22k gold gilded, raised, oval base. Sculpture itself: 18"H x 19"W x 10"D.
