Figura de león protector de jade, dinastía Han del este
A figure of a protective lion, made of jade, with reddish-golden patches. The lion stands on all four paws, with its head raised and showing its teeth.
During the Han dynasty, a sculptural tradition emerged with a greater interest in depicting fabulous animals and beasts in durable materials such as jade. Inspired by Taoist philosophy, which began to spread among the upper echelons, who sought immortality. Monumental stone sculptures of animals and their small jade counterparts were found in the tombs. It is believed that they served the function of protecting their owner and opening the way to paradise. In good condition with wear or patina.
Size: 3.4 x 4.9 x 2.9 cm; Weight: 43 g
