2pc Chinese Shiwan Mudmen Porcelain Figures, Signed Pair:
A finely detailed pair of Chinese Shiwan ceramic figures, depicting elderly scholars engaged in conversation. These expressive sculptures showcase traditional Shiwan (Foshan) craftsmanship, known for its highly detailed, lifelike figures and distinctive rich blue and earth-tone glazes. One figure is seated (10″H) in a chair, holding a scroll, while the standing companion (11.5″H) gestures in animated discussion. The Shiwan seal mark is present on the base of the seated figure’s chair. The vibrant glazing and expressive facial features make these figures a striking representation of Chinese folkloric and literary themes.
