Description from the seller

Splendid Chinese wooden figure intricately carved, depicting a religious/Buddhist character, probably a monk or itinerant pilgrim.

The work features particularly rich and detailed craftsmanship:

* very expressive face with light inlayed eyes;
* wide removable hood/hat with a central element;
* rosary/prayer necklace;
* long fly whisk;
* finely carved robes with numerous details;
* elaborate carved rocky base;
* wood in a reddish-brown tone with a beautiful patina.

Height: about 35 cm.

The figure shows signs of time, small cracks and irregularities in the wood, visible in the photographs, consistent with the artisanal nature of the object. The lower part retains a rougher finish and marks from carving tools.

There are no visible signatures or stamps.

Collectible item / Asian antique, particularly interesting for collectors of Chinese art, wooden sculpture, and Buddhist art.

Careful packing for shipment.
