About the Item

19th century hand carved hardwood stand or pedestal with beautifully carved 'bat' motifs on two sides and floral on the opposite sides. Also lovely geometric openwork on the interior and running down the legs. With a rich patina that only comes from age and use. Great for a large vase of flowers, a sculpture. urn or any other large piece for display. In Chinese culture, bats have been used as a sign of good fortune and happiness since the Han Period (206 BCE–220 CE), when they were often portrayed in literature, art, and mythology. Bats have become a sign of hope and positivity in Chinese society due to their links with good fortune, happiness, and prosperity.
