About the Item
A Chinese Qing Dynasty period hand-carved wooden temple corbel from the 19th century with detailed figures and custom base. Created in China during the Qing Dynasty, this corbel comes from a temple, where it was hand-carved in wood with many stunning details. This corbel showcases a spectacular openwork carving with a great attention to detail. Three Chinese bearded characters are depicted, perhaps two scholars and a god or celestial guardian on the right. Each character wears a traditional costume highlighted by black painting. The detail on these characters is exquisite, as can be seen in the folds of their dress, the elaborate headwear and the intricate armor. A custom made wooden base supports this beautiful piece. This 19th century Qing Dynasty Chinese hand-carved wooden temple corbel will make for a gorgeous addition to any home, perhaps displayed in a living room or foyer where it would no doubt be a tremendous conversation starter.

- Large Chinese Carved and Lacquered Buddha, Qing Dynasty, 19th CenturyLocated in Austin, TXA large and magnificent near life-sized Chinese carved and lacquered wood figure of a Buddha, Qing Dynasty, 19th century or earlier, southern China. The figure likely represents one of the Five Tathagatas, also known as Dhyani Buddhas or Wisdom Buddhas. More specifically, either Amitabha or Amoghasiddhi. Amitabha is the Buddha of infinite light, and represents the wisdom of observation and recognition. Amoghasiddhi is the Buddha of accomplishment, and represents the wisdom of perfected practices. The size and scale of the Buddha indicates it was made for temple worship. The large Buddha is portrayed seated in vajrasana, or full lotus position, with the soles of both feet facing up. His elegant hands, with impossibly long and slender fingers, perform shuni mudra, the gesture of bestowing patience. His right arm is bent at the elbow, the right hand raised to heart level. The left arm resting gently in his lap, the left hand at navel level. The Buddha is dressed in voluminous robes that wrap around his shoulders and body, and tied at the waist. The heavy fabric draping and pooling elegantly all around his robust body. His broad chest and right arm exposed. The Buddha's face is both solemn and beatific - his expression seeming to change depending on the angle of view. The most notable feature of his face is the large urna to the center of his forehead, set between a pair of painted, high arching brows over heavily lidded almond shaped eyes. A strong nose is set above a small mouth pursed in an ever so slight smile. Long pendulous earlobes touch his shoulders. The Buddha's hair arranged in the typical fashion, with "spikes" representing tight curls. A prominent ushnisha rises from the crown of his head, covered by more hair, and topped with a rounded protuberance. The Buddha is constructed from several blocks of wood, joined, carved and lacquered a deep red-brown with gold flecks...Category
