About this seller
Private sellerProduct description
This is an antique, hand-carved wooden statue from China, dating from the late Qing or early Republic period. The work depicts a Luohan or Damo, a figure of great significance within Buddhism, and testifies to refined craftsmanship. The statue is crafted from a single piece of dark, polished wood with a deep, reddish-brown hue. The artist has carved with great precision the expressive facial features, the flowing folds of the robe, and the detailed prayer beads. The figure is accompanied by a mythical lion-like creature, which adds complexity and symbolic depth to the composition. The base is designed in a more rustic, natural way, forming a contrast with the finely detailed figure. The overall condition is good, in accordance with the age of the object. Over the years, the wood has developed a rich patina that accentuates the texture and depth of the carving. The statue retains its original finish and structural integrity. This Sculpture is a characterful decorative object that adds a touch of history and spirituality to an interior. It fits perfectly in a classic, eclectic, or Asian-inspired setting, for example, on a dresser, in a display cabinet, or as part of a collection.
