未知

$1,000 - $1,500

5 x 5-3/4 x 3-1/8 inches (12.7 x 14.6 x 7.9 cm)

The figure showing two losses to mustache and proper left thumb and index fingers, the end of the fly-whisk handle broken off, smaller chips to the garments at left sleeve, chip to the tip of the left shoe and hairlines to the backside, along with abrasions and scratches to the stone surface throughout, commensurate with age and handling. Otherwise, no other condition issues observed.

finely carved as a bearded scholar reclining in a relaxed pose, his right arm resting on a stack of books while holding a fly-whisk, his left hand draped over a raised knee, the deeply incised details retaining traces of the original gilding, the figure is mounted on a later red-glazed ceramic stand, dating to the 19th century, and raised on a fitted wood stand
