Description: Decorative Chinese porcelain figurine depicting a wise man or deity in rich traditional robes, with a long black beard and a ruyi sceptre in his hand. The figure is covered with bright multicolour enamels in red, green, yellow, blue and other tones, highlighted with gilded details on the crown and costume. The floral and stylised cloud patterns emphasise the symbolism of good fortune and longevity typical of Chinese decorative art. With its expressive face, carefully modelled folds of clothing and vivid colour palette, the figurine becomes a striking accent on a shelf, mantelpiece or in a display cabinet.
Ideal for a collection of Oriental porcelain, as a decorative piece for an Asian-inspired interior or as a symbolic gift wishing luck and prosperity.
