About the Item
This striking porcelain figure depicts a pair of twin boys rendered in classic blue-and-white, a motif deeply rooted in Chinese decorative tradition. Seated side by side, one child holds a lotus blossom while the other carries a large fish, both auspicious symbols of abundance, harmony, and prosperity. The fine brushwork across their robes reveals intricate floral and foliate patterns, executed with remarkable attention to detail. Their rounded faces, serene smiles, and lively expressions convey warmth and charm, while the sculptural form gives the piece presence from every angle. Likely mid-20th century, this work exemplifies the enduring appeal of Chinese export porcelain and its ability to blend symbolic meaning with decorative beauty, making it a meaningful and captivating display piece.

Pair of Monumental Hand-Carved Koi Table Bases
Located in Sarasota, FL
A commanding pair of hand-carved hardwood table bases featuring expressive koi or mythological fish rising upright from squared plinths. Their highly detailed features—arched tails, deeply incised scales, fan-like fins, and stylized expressions—create an incredible sense of movement and artistry.
Likely crafted for export during the late 19th to early 20th century, the forms draw on both Eastern and Western design language. The koi, long revered in Chinese symbolism as icons of prosperity, endurance, and transformation, are paired here with a dramatic sculptural presence that evokes Victorian maximalism.
These bases are versatile in application—ideal as supports for a custom marble or glass dining table, or used separately as twin console tables...
