"Female Statuette In Shimmering Tiger's Eye"
This magnificent statuette depicts an elegant court lady, finely sculpted from a single block of tiger's-eye stone with shimmering, golden reflections. Likely dating from the Republic period (1912-1949) or the mid-20th century, this work testifies to the mastery of Chinese craftsmanship. The graceful figure, dressed in a traditional hanfu with flowing drapery, is presented on a carved wooden base in an openwork style. The natural play of light on the stone delicately highlights the facial features and the intricate headdress, making this object a rare and timeless collector's item.
