Magnificent, Large Japanese Carved Coral Figural Group, Seven Figures with Fish

About the Item

Magnificent and Large Japanese Carved Coral Masterpiece – Seven Figures Amid a Reef with Fish and Storks A breathtaking celebration of artistry and natural beauty, this exceptional and large Japanese carved coral figural masterpiece captures the essence of traditional craftsmanship. Sculpted from a single, impressive specimen of rich, vibrant coral, the piece depicts seven elegantly carved figures engaged in a lively scene atop a reef-like formation, symbolizing prosperity, wisdom, and harmony. Exquisite details abound—graceful storks, revered in Japanese culture as symbols of longevity, stand poised among swirling waves, while delicate fish, harbingers of abundance and good fortune, glide seamlessly through the composition. The flowing robes, expressive faces, and intricate textures demonstrate the skill and precision of a master artisan. Resting on a custom wood base, this extraordinary coral sculpture is both a statement of opulence and a rare collector’s treasure, embodying centuries of artistic tradition. A piece of this scale and intricacy is a testament to nature’s splendor and human ingenuity—an heirloom-worthy work destined to captivate and inspire. Coral size without base: 8.5" high x 19" wide x 1" deep Very good condition, no damages noted.
