These intricately carved masterpieces capture the imperial grandeur and cultural refinement of the Qing Dynasty. Crafted with remarkable precision, these statues often depict emperors in regal attire, conveying their authority and prestige. Ivory, with its smooth texture and delicate detailing, was a favored medium for such works of art. While these statues exemplify exceptional craftsmanship, they are also a testament to the historical context of the time. Today, they serve as prized relics, offering a glimpse into the opulence and artistic achievements of the Qing Dynasty in the 19th century. Good condition Retail prices may vary
