Pair of Chinese bronze figures of deities standing on dragons. The two sculptures were made in the 20th century. They represent the Tao gods Lu Xing and Fu Xing. They stand for fortune and prosperity. Very decorative sculptures with a love for detail. The bronze is oxidized on some parts of the figures.
Bronze will oxidize when exposed to air, developing a patina coating. A brown, black, red or blue to green coating on bronze is a sign of normal, harmless corrosion. This outer layer protects the inner layers of the bronze object from deteriorating. The sculptures are quite heavy.
