Description
This extraordinary early Qing Dynasty cast iron sculpture is a powerful example of 17th-century gilded Chinese metalwork. The piece reflects the masterful foundry techniques of the period, known for producing sculptures of impressive scale and detail in this demanding material. The surface has developed a rugged and beautiful patina over centuries, lending it a dignified, time-worn character. The solid iron construction gives it a commanding presence, perfect for a collector seeking a rare and historically significant piece that bridges the late Ming and early Qing periods.
