Description:
Nice Tibetan dog. It can be a dog, lion or dragon, which is located in China, located in a fairly large geographical area, probably centered in Tibet. We think that this piece is a dog or a lion, noticing that it has hooves instead of claws.
It is made of bronze, is small in size, and was probably conceived as a portable or travel piece. This piece falls within the scope of influence of Fu dogs, Fu lions or Fu dragons, whose goal was the protection of people and things. They are also known as 'celestial dogs' or 'dogs of happiness'. Likewise, they simultaneously represent value and energy.
Comments:
Very interesting as a collection and decorative piece. Spectacular in an illuminated niche, with a minimalist decoration. It is a rare piece, given its small size.
Because the differences in tonalities between photos and reality are inevitable, keep in mind that the color tones of the photos are not exactly the same as the tones of the actual colors. The piece presents the wear and tear of its time, as well as some stains. It has small flaws. The information provided here are personal opinions not contrasted. SHIPMENTS ARE MADE ON MONDAY.
