About the Item

Oriental Chinese bronze statuette measuring 16, 5 x 16 cm depicting a sage riding a horse. Note the accuracy of the details, from the tassels on the harnesses to the under saddle with geometric labyrinth decorations, to the tunic with the long, wide sleeves of the bearded elderly sage The object was a censer, the male figure can be removed, and inside the horse there is space to burn incense or other perfumes, the smoke of which comes out of the two holes on the front of the saddle. On stylistic grounds and because of the quality of the bronze, which is thick and features a fine example of polishing, it can be dated to the penultimate century of the Qing Dynasty, or the 19th century.
