Exquisite Ming-Qing Dynasty Style Carved Bone Sculptures With Wood Top

These stunning objects are intricately carved bone sculptures with wooden tops that resemble the traditional Chinese style, often seen in artifacts from the Ming (1368-1644 AD) and Qing (1644-1912 AD) dynasties, characterized by detailed human figures and motifs. The figures are dressed in attire reminiscent of these periods, with hats indicating social status. The female figure holds what appears to be a lotus flower, a common symbol in Chinese art representing purity and beauty. The male figure holds a pipe, and his facial features convey wisdom, suggesting he may be a sage or scholar.The intricate carving style is typical of Chinese artisans, with attention to delicate details such as facial expressions, clothing patterns, and the inclusion of other figures and nature motifs in the overall design. The bases of the sculptures feature what looks like the 'shou' character, symbolizing longevity, a popular theme in Chinese art.
