AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Chinese ceramics SANCAI with the characteristic colors that distinguish it. Inspired by the famous Mingqi funerary horses of the Tang Dynasty, which symbolize nobility and the power of the deceased. This glazed terracotta sculpture is likely from the 18th century, inspired by the splendors of the Tang Dynasty, and reflects the strength and majesty of the horses that accompanied Emperor QIN SHI in the afterlife. Excellent condition. The crackle effect is evident on almost the entire surface, given its age, but this does not diminish the beauty of the object at all.
