Antique Chinese Dragon Gold Over Red Paint, Architecture Salvage
I have just moved from my house in NJ where I was a big collector of a variety of objects to outfit my big Victorian. Now that we have moved to Florida, there is just no way to keep so many things. I’ve used this piece in my library in the section of my Asian pieces. Originally acquired in New Jersey. I kept at eye level so the unfinished pieces on the top and bottom were not visible. This is a hand-carved wood dragon figure that is a remnant from a larger piece. This remnant measures 5.5″ long, 2.5″ high and 2.5 deep. Painted gold over red paint. Has an unusual mark on the top that looks like three circles in a circle. Has an eye hook on the top so that it can be hung. Please note this is incomplete and must have come from a larger carved figure. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

Antique Carved Wooden Chinese Dragon Corbels Brackets Architectural Salvage Pair
Featured is a pair of Antique hand carved Wooden Chinese Dragon Corbels or Brackets that are Architectural Salvage. They are intricately carved in an interesting design in a hardwood and stained a mahogany type color. There are some lacey cut out areas in the vining flora area to see through and add to the beauty. The dragons have pearls in their mouths. They are large sized at 20.25 in length, 15.5 in height, and about 3 in depth at the widest point of the dragons head, but at the straight sides it is 2 wide. These could use a good cleaning, there is old dust dirt in recessed areas from age. I cleaned it some, but there are many recessed carvings with books and crannies. There are some dings and chips, they are not perfect, but still in really great shape. There is kind of a sliver off of the side bottom of the one dragons mouth, but not really noticeable. Also one of them has shifted a touch with the panel insert moving forward a bit. I never noticed it until I was analyzing it to list. Please see pics provided. Pics cannot do these pieces justice!! The hand carving makes each subtlety unique. These are definitely treasures!! The item “Antique Carved Wooden Chinese Dragon Corbels Brackets Architectural Salvage Pair” is in sale since Saturday, July 11, 2020. This item is in the category “Antiques\Architectural & Garden\Corbels”. The seller is “kellyrockpile” and is located in Delaware, Ohio. This item can be shipped to United States.
