Here is a very large and well cared for pair of really impressive Foo Lions, or Foo Dogs. This is the nicest pair I have had in this style, and also by far the largest at 14 1/4". Sensational color and painting, not found in the new dogs. This particular figurene has been made since the Ming Dynasty, and have been perhaps the most loved and popular of all the Chinese porcelain animals. The colors are exceptionally brilliant,and the details are well executed and pleasing. A great and early pair numbered and signed with impressed character mark on one, and the other with only the numeral 26.
Dimensions: Height 14 1/4"(36cm) The Foos,10"
Bases: 4 1/4" (10.5cm)length,3"(7.5cm) across the front base.
Condition: Excellent, no damage, great enamels and colors, a bit of discoloration on the base underside bottoms.

Here is the most charming FOO DOG FAMILLE ROSE CENSER you could ever hope to find. I had seen a very similar item (different pictoral cavettos) with some damage offered on Trocadero, nearly bought it, and this perfect beauty came along. Fantastic enamels, color and style. It speaks for itself, simply fabulous!
Dimensions: Height: 7"(17.50cm)
Width : 5"(12.5cm) ear to ear
Foos: About 3"
Condition: Mint. No chips, frits or hairlines. Unsigned
NOTE: THE LINE YOU SEE IN VIEW TWO CAVETTO IS NOT A HAIRLINE. IT IS THE TREE TRUNK.
