This Large Antique Chinese Export Turquoise Glazed Rooster is a fine example of traditional Chinese ceramic artistry, likely from the Qing Dynasty period or early 20th century. The figure is meticulously hand-sculpted and adorned with a striking turquoise glaze, a signature color in Chinese ceramics, symbolizing prosperity, longevity, and harmony.
The rooster stands in a proud and regal pose, showcasing intricate detailing in its feathers, tail, and facial features. Its stance exudes symbolism, as roosters in Chinese culture represent strength, vigilance, and good fortune, often associated with warding off evil spirits and bringing luck to households.
The piece's vibrant turquoise glaze creates a bold visual impact, highlighting the craftsmanship while giving it a lustrous finish. This large export piece is ideal as a statement decoration, whether displayed on its own or as part of a larger collection of Chinese antiques. Perfect for collectors of Chinese export porcelain or anyone seeking a touch of cultural elegance, this rooster embodies artistry, tradition, and charm.
Measures: 16.25" h x 9.25" w x 6.75" d. less
