Very Large (35kgs) Pair Antique Tibetan Bronze Temple Lion/Foo Dog Statues,c1880

Description: About the item: Beautiful pair of very large late 19th century Tibetan bronze temple lions/Foo dogs,c1880. I have owned many of these over the years and these are by far the best. Standing at 2 feet tall and weighing around 35kgs (I cannot fit them on my scales/they are too heavy) these are highly impressive and decorative pieces. The casting is very fine with lovely detail to the features, mane, claws etc with key facets highlighted in gilt. The bronze has aged well and taken on a lovely deep rich colour. Overall condition is good . Please refer to the detailed photographs and feel free to contact me if you would like to view the item or have any questions. Size: 63cm tall x 54cm wide x 39cm deep, weight approximately 35kg for the pair. I will happily ship Worldwide but please contact me regarding international shipping as these are very large and heavy.
