About the Item

A fine quality antique Chinese late Qing boxwood carved figure of an Immortal holding a child and dating from around 1900.

The figure is not marked but has a wonderful natural aged patina. Offered in good condition with light wear associated with age. Provenance: From a wonderful and choice collection of small cabinet pieces many of which we are currently offering on 1stdibs. Acquired in the UK Art Market.
