清十八世紀 竹根雕和合二仙

finely carved in the form of the Hehe Erxian twins standing with wide smiles on their faces, both figures adorned in long flowing robes, one of them holding a brocade ball in both hands while the other wraps his arm around his twin's shoulder in a friendly embrace, the surface patinated to a lustrous reddish-brown colour

good overall condition, with just natural pitting to the surface and minute chips to the robes and other extremities.
