An absolutely stunning pair of ancient chinese solid bronze gilded fo dog seals.
These items which date from the late 17th-early 18th century AD, are in wonderful all over condition .
They still retain some of their original gilding and show good signs of wear and tear conducive with their age.
With good deep cast seals to the base these pieces are the real deal and seldom seen outside important
collection.
The Fo Dog was regarded as a guardian and is often seen outside the entrances of temples and tombs .
Ex. Private collection formed in the 1970s.
As with all of my antiquities and coins this item comes complete with a certificate of authenticity .
