Description
A vintage Chinese Sancai-style glazed ceramic figurine depicting a guardian lion, or Foo Dog. The figure is modelled in a traditional seated posture with the head turned, featuring a stylised mane and tail. It is finished in a vibrant polychrome glaze of green and yellow with aubergine accents. The lion sits upon an integral octagonal base decorated with low-relief moulded scrollwork and floral motifs, finished with a grey-black wash. The unglazed underside reveals a light clay body, a central circular vent hole, and an incised mark, possibly Chinese characters. Height: approx. 8 cm.
