About the Item
This pair of small Chinese stoneware puppy figures, made circa 1860, combines the natural warmth and charm of the Shar Pei with the soft, flowing beauty of sancai glazes.
Each figure is modeled with rounded contours and wonderfully expressive faces, capturing the alert, slightly mischievous spirit of the breed.
The sancai palette—green, yellow, and aubergine—flows across their surfaces in hand-applied washes that emphasize the folds and curves of the bodies.
Their small scale only adds to their appeal, giving them an immediacy and friendliness that feels very much in keeping with Qing-period domestic sculpture. The pair survives in excellent condition, with their glazes retaining strong color and the modeling remaining crisp.
Dimensions: 2" x 3.5" X 2.5" tall.
Condition: Excellent.
Price: $1130
The adorable Shar Pei is a fascinating breed of ancient Chinese pedigree.
The Chinese Shar-Pei has characteristics that make it a one-of-a-kind dog. They are steadfastly loyal to family. They are cute yet strong and independent guardians of the home, famous for their intelligence and loyalty.
Their physical traits are a broad muzzle, small eyes, tiny triangular ears, and abundant folds of loose skin about the head, neck, and shoulders.
