About this seller
Private sellerProduct description
This is a hand-painted porcelain sculpture of a Chinese emperor, manufactured in the mid-20th century. The piece depicts an imperial figure seated on a detailed dragon throne, a representation of power and status in Chinese culture.
The sculpture is hand-decorated and glazed, with a height of 33 cm. The symbolism is rich and traditional: the imperial yellow robe was exclusively reserved for the emperor and symbolizes the earth and the highest power. The dragon on the chest represents wisdom and good fortune, while the stylized waves and clouds at the bottom of the robe depict the imperial universe and the wish for a stable empire.
The sculpture is in very good condition for its age, estimated between 1940 and 1975. The glaze shows a fine, even craquelure, which contributes to the authentic character and vintage appearance of the object.
