About the Item

A fine pair of Chinese carved hardwood water buffalos on stands. This pair of late 19th century Chinese hardwood figures are superbly carved with amazing detail. They depict two water buffalo who are lying down and humorously each one has a boy climbing on its back. The expressions of the shocked buffalo are brilliantly captured. These finely carved figures have inset glass eyes and the teeth have been made from bone. They both have separate carved hardwood stands that display these sculptures very well.

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...
