About the Item

A beautiful pair of 19th century large carved wooden asian lions with wonderful patina. Possibly Chinese as they were in a collection of mostly Chinese furniture and architectural pieces. Wood is a light faded grey brown color and some areas have a faded tempera style paint. One lion has had some repairs made. There are flaws throughout that is to be expected with something of this age. One lion has a broken foot that could be repaired but still stands and there are weathered cracks throughout. Both lions fit together like puzzle pieces and will come disassembled but labeled.
