A 19th century Chinese miniature carved giltwood figure group circa 1890
About the Item
This remarkable miniature Chinese/Cantonese carved hardwood and gold leaf figure group depicts a group of five scholars, two of them holding a large object while the other three are watching and examining whilst standing under pine trees on rocky ground. This beautiful fine hand carved figure group has a superb three dimensional quality where the artist Carver has used great skill in creating the depth of different layers with figures standing behind the front group all perfectly carved with fine detailing and finished with red lacquer and gold leaf. This lovely tactile object is in very good condition with some light wear to the gold leaf.

Late 19th Century Japanese Carved Hardwood Okimono of a Man, circa 1890
Located in Central England, GB
Late 19th C Japanese carved hardwood okimono of a man, circa 1890
This top quality and most impressive large scale Japanese carved hardwood okimono superbly depicts a characterful study of a delightfully crafty looking man. He is dressed simply in a robe. On his back, he has a rolled woven mat for resting and a turtle shell sun hat hangs below. On his side hanging from his waist sash, there is a simple hand fan made from woven palm leaves and around his neck, he is wearing a string of very large beads. This unfortunate character is on a journey and he seems to have lost or broken one sandal. His foot is sore and he is resting it on his gnarly walking stick. He has one arm outstretched and is holding out a large piece of fresh fruit as an offering perhaps to barter for new sandals...
