About the Item

A fine pair antique Chinese Qing cloisonne standing Kylin Dragon figures with fine enamel detailing dating from the latter 19th century or possibly earlier. The standing figures have elements of exposed brass work and are inset with colored and black enamels and stand four-square with ferocious dragon heads with jaws wide open, horns, whiskers and large piercing eyes in black on white enamels. They have a lion tail bushed and raised on their backs with brass cloven hooves. The bodies are decorated in scrolling red and green enamels against a black enamel ground with small scroll and patterned elements in brass wire outline. The tails are similarly decorated. The figures are typically not marked. Provenance: Acquired from the UK art market. In good original condition with wear associated with age and use and with unpolished brass metal elements.

Antique PAIR of Chinese Bronze Foo Dogs with Good Detail and colour, early 20thC
Located in Lincoln, Lincolnshire
These are a very good pair of antique Ming style Chinese foo or lion dog sculptures, sometimes called temple lions, made of bronze, with good detail, which we date to the late Qing or early Republic period of the 20th Century, Circa 1920. These pieces are well cast with very good detail, showing wear and a good natural patination to the high points as expected from use and polishing over a long period, the lustrous copper bronze metal below.
