Antique PAIR of Chinese Bronze Foo Dogs with Good Detail and colour, early 20thC
Located in Lincoln, Lincolnshire
These are a very good pair of antique Ming style Chinese foo or lion dog sculptures, sometimes called temple lions, made of bronze, with good detail, which we date to the late Qing or early Republic period of the 20th Century, Circa 1920. These pieces are well cast with very good detail, showing wear and a good natural patination to the high points as expected from use and polishing over a long period, the lustrous copper bronze metal below. The places on the castings where one would not normally polish ( eg. the underside, the back and neck area) are fairly rough to the touch in keeping with their age These are a substantial pair of bronzes, weighing over 900gm unpacked These lovely pair of antique Chinese foo dogs...
