DESCRIPTION

A charming Chinese cast bronze miniature depicting two monkeys in an intertwined composition. The expressive faces and compact sculptural form create an engaging decorative object. The bronze has developed an attractive natural patina with areas of green verdigris consistent with age. A fine small cabinet piece suitable for collectors of Chinese bronzes and animal figures.

COLLECTOR’S NOTE

Monkey figures appear throughout Chinese decorative arts and are admired for their associations with intelligence, agility, and good fortune. Small bronze animal sculptures were popular as scholar’s desk ornaments and display pieces. The exact age is offered as an informed opinion based on style and construction.
