Shanxi 1840s Hand Carved Wooden Corbel with Deities Mounted on Base
About the Item
A Chinese Shanxi carved wooden corbel from the mid 19th century, mounted on a base and depicting two deities. Born in the Northern Province of Shanxi during the 1840s, this exquisite wooden corbel demonstrates the undeniable skill Chinese artists possessed at the time. Presenting two deities (possibly Zhong Kui and Guanyin), the corbel is adorned with an abundance of motifs and showcases traces of its original polychromy. The male character on the left, holding a sword and a fan, adopts a nicely curving posture beautifully echoed by the female character on the right whose clothes and hairstyle are typical of the Tang dynasty. Accented with a stylized dragon figure and scrolls, which are typical Chinese motifs, this Chinese carved corbel, circa 1840 is mounted on a custom wooden base, making it a wonderful decorative object to be displayed anywhere in a home, from a foyer to a living room where it will be a great conversation piece. Dimensions without base: 16"W x 4"D x 34"H.

Collection of Three Indian Sandstone Carved Heads of Deities
Located in Atlanta, GA
A collection of three carved sandstone heads on wood display stands from Northern India Rajasthan or
Madhya Pradesh, circa 11-12th century. Fragmented from large whole-body statue, these red sandstone heads exhibit very fine carving, typical of Northern Indian Art during the medieval time. Two males and one female, they represent heavenly deities Yakshas and Yakshini. Their facial features were detailed with large almond-shape eyes under thin arched eyebrows. The males have characteristic facial hairs including curvy moustaches and tightly combed beard, both finely carved, and the female wears large spoke loop earrings. They all don fantastical hairstyles with serpent-like spiral locks and some with elaborate knots on top and above the sideburns.
These deities are likely celestial musicians. A pair of full-body statues (lot 70) were offered for sale in Christie's Indian and Southeast Asian Art...
