Description from the seller

Antique Chinese Carved Turquoise Sculpture – 20th Century

Description of the Item:
Splendid and refined Chinese sculpture in authentic natural turquoise, dating to the first half of the 20th century (Republic/late Qing period). The piece is a magnificent example of high Eastern craftsmanship and is masterfully hand-carved from a single block of mineral.
It depicts a graceful traditional female figure (court girl / immortal deity) adorned with flowing drapery, botanical details, and a finely carved bird at her side. The stone's color showcases a magnificent and vivid natural green-blue hue, enriched by structural veining that certifies its authenticity.
The sculpture is mounted on its contemporaneous base in exotic wood, finely pierced and hand-shaped with classic geometric motifs.
