Une paire de grandes figures aux têtes amovibles en bronze, Chine pour le Vietnam, 19ème

H.: 120 cm (incl. base) 
H.: 107,5 cm

Provenance: A Belgian private collection.

Condition: (UV-checked)
- The male figure's head generally in very good condition, with minor superficial wear. The body with a consolidated tear on the back and another longer break situated around the knees towards the back. The surface with minor superficial wear and areas of slight oxidation. The base with a consolidated T-shaped tear.
- The female figure's head generally in good condition, with the lead weight and rod reattached to the head, the juncture with a missing corner. With a consolidated tear on the back of the left arm and another from the armpit along the sleeve running downwards towards the low end of the robe. The surface with minor superficial wear, slight areas of oxidation and minor small punctures. The base slightly deformed, with a vertical tear and another consolidated vertical tear.
- Both figures probably lacking decorations and/or ornaments, considering the holes on the robe of the female figure and the pin and hole in the hands of both figures.
- Both wooden stands generally in good condition with minor superficial wear. A corner of one stand reattached, as visible on the photo.
