| Description:
|
I found this Bronze Carving of Chinese 12 Zodiac Paperweight while I was looking around the Jade Market. The owner knew this is a weight piece, but he did not know it was carved with 12 zodiac, so he sold to me at a very fair price.
I checked into this piece in detail after I went back home, and found it was very delicate, meticulous, and adorable carved. 12 zodiac are small but detail, the back of the piece was carved with each zodiacs claws, feet, hoof, and paws, all in excellent style, and a very hard to find piece. |
