Vintage Chinese porcelain guardian lion / foo dog figurine featuring a female lion with her cub.
A particularly attractive example with a colorful sancai-style glaze in pale yellow, turquoise, lavender/mauve, black and white. The lion sits atop a decorated pedestal with floral and geometric designs, while the small cub rests beneath her paw.
Approximately 9.5" tall.
Unmarked on the underside.
Vintage decorative Chinese piece; exact age and maker are unknown. I do not believe this example is antique, so it is being offered conservatively as vintage.
Very nice display presence with expressive modeling and an unusual color combination.
Good vintage condition with no chips, cracks or repairs. Please examine all photos carefully for condition, glaze variation, firing irregularities and signs of age/use.
Dramatic and fun piece!
