Description :

A decorative Asian-inspired grouping featuring a carved brass gourd-form vase with red lacquered exterior, accompanied by a matching pair of carved stone Foo Dogs (guardian lions). The vase displays deep relief floral and foliate carving over a textured ground, framed by vertical panels and finished with a flared mouth and pedestal base. The exposed brass interior and weight suggest a metal construction, while the bold red exterior finish evokes traditional cinnabar-style decorative wares.

The accompanying Foo Dogs are carved in traditional seated poses with stylized manes, expressive facial features, and symbolic elements. One figure rests a paw atop a sphere, a classic guardian lion motif associated with protection and authority. Together, this trio forms a striking display grouping suitable for Asian décor, shelf presentation, or altar-style arrangement.
