Add color, history, and personality to your space with this captivating pair of vintage Vietnamese figurines. Beautifully hand-painted and richly expressive, this pair of sculptures celebrates tradition, spirituality, and craft.
The female figure wears a traditional maroon áo dài adorned with gold floral motifs and a green sash, holding what appears to be a symbolic offering. The male figure, likely a monk, stands in quiet contemplation, dressed in a flowing red and black robe with a dramatic lacquer-like finish. Together, they make a powerful visual statement.
Both sculptures are crafted from a dense plaster or composite material with a lacquered finish and stand freely on individual plinth-style bases.
Both statues were officially cleared for export by the Hanoi Department of Culture, as evidenced by the original seals on their bases, a unique detail that adds to their authenticity and provenance.
Woman: 5" wide, 4" deep, and 14.5" high.
Man: 4.5" wide, 4.5" deep, and 14.75" high.
