This pair of Foo Dogs (Lions) appears to be very old, possibly dating to the 1800s. They are masterfully sculpted from black stone and highly polished.
The rectangular bases show a floral motif on all sides, and each lion holds an unpolished ball in its mouth. The corners of each base are chipped, with smaller chips in other areas and on one of the dogs' noses. The legs and bodies as well as the manes are polished to a high finish, and the streaks seen in the images are not cracks but the natural quality of the type of stone used.
They are very heavy and will require special packing which will attract a higher than normal courier cost so that you receive them in excellent condition.
