How Much is a Chinese Man Figurine?
- What are Chinese figurines?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertOctober 7, 2020
Chinese figurative sculptures vary widely depending on the medium and intended use. Ornate Buddhist figures assisted ritual meditation, wooden ancestor figures embodied the lingering spirit of a relative, ceramic mingqi burial figures accompanied one’s spirit in the afterlife, and decorative export sculptures presented an idealized version of Chinese culture and beauty.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022One type of Chinese figurines that is quite popular is shekwan or mudware. These small handmade figurines are often called mudmen and are, not surprisingly, crafted out of mud. In the early 1950s, a new era of mudman figurines began but these are not made individually and by hand. On 1stDibs, find authentic shekwan pieces from some of the world’s top sellers.
Lotus GallerySeptember 23, 2020Most figurines just need a light dusting every once in a while. For a deeper cleaning to remove residue (such as nicotine or adhesives), try soaking in warm soapy water and gently washing with a soft cloth.
Lotus GallerySeptember 23, 2020Chinese figurines come in all shapes and sizes. Most figures measure between 4” and 18” tall, with some being as small as 1” in height or as large as 36” (or more) in height
