Antique Qing Dynasty Polychrome Chinese Warrior On A Dragon Fish
Antique Qing Dynasty Polychrome Chinese Warrior On A Dragon Fish. Offered is this fabulous Chinese warrior riding a dragon fish into battle. His expression is fierce, as is the majestic mythical creature he is mounted on. I obtained this wonderful antique, rare themed creature with warrior tile from a magnificent estate filled with Asian art and artifacts over 30 years ago. On the backside, you can see the piercings for which to suspend the tile. Also, on the backside is the signature. This clay sculpture measures 13″ W x 12″ H x approx 4 3/4 D from the backside of the dragon to the toe of the warrior. The height is adjustable from the acrylic base. As the piece sits now, it stands at 15 H. The base alone is 13″ W x 1″ H, and is beveled at the top. The acrylic base has some scuffs and abrasions but can most likely be polished or buffed out. I found no cracks, chips, or repairs, and even though I do my very best to examine whatever I list for sale, there is always the possibility I may have missed something. Therefore, I ask that you carefully examine all the photos because they are an important part of the description. If you need more photos, or should you have questions specific to this piece, please message me. I thank you for viewing!

Large Chinese White Jade Ruyi Scepter Qilong Dragons Display Stand Box Nanyang
LARGE CHINESE JADE RUYI SCEPTER WITH DISPLAY STAND & STORAGE BOX. , or scepter, made of carved jade. A ruyi is a curved decorative object that serves as either a ceremonial scepter in Chinese Buddhism or a talisman symbolizing power and good fortune in Chinese folklore. The “ruyi” image frequently appears as a motif in Asian art. This one has a typical form with a curved handle and head. The head is decorated with a medallion and scrolls. The handle has two beautifully carved qilong dragons facing each other with a ball in the middle. The scepter is made of solid jade, white in color with some brown mottling and small black inclusions. It measures about 13 1/4″ long, 3 5/8″ wide, and 3 1/8 tall. The scepter comes with a wooden display stand and its original storage box. I believe the labels on the box (Chinese text) indicate that the scepter was made at a jade carving factory in Nanyang, sometimes referred to as the “city of jade”. I’m not sure how old it is, but the box probably dates to the third quarter of the 20th century. Condition of this Chinese jade scepter is EXCELLENT. It appears undamaged with no chips or cracks. The jade has some natural mottling and inclusions. The display stand and storage box are also in good shape. Please take a close look at the many photos I’ve provided and judge condition for yourself. See my other listings. For more great items! Carved From Solid Jade. Closeup of Handle With Qilong Dragons. Paper Label on Underside of Head. I will insure this item at my own expense. Txzj pxzj12403 txzj-11 txzj19 txzj115.
