A pair of Dehua figures of He Xiangu
One sealed Xu Yunlin zhi; one sealed Bojiyuren, 19th century
Each fashioned in mirror image with the famous immortal holding a lingzhi in one hand, the other raised in greeting, elegantly coiffed with flowers in her hair and jeweled earrings setting off her plump, serene features and narrow shoulders covered in heavy robes belted at the waist and cascading down to her feet, each figure flanked by a young stag supporting a basket of flowers atop his saddle, both figures standing on a rockwork base.
16 1/2in (42cm) high
