Standing at an impressive scale, this handmade sculpture features vibrant, hand-carved genuine stone petals that form lush, blossoming peonies—a traditional symbol of prosperity and honor. The intricate foliage is expertly crafted from polished natural green gemstones, with each leaf individually wired and meticulously wrapped in thread.
Finding a specimen of this extraordinary scale and preservation is an absolute rarity, making it a definitive must-have for the serious collector of Asian art or fine interior design. The tree is anchored in a substantial, hand-carved genuine stone planter featuring elegant relief carvings and traditional footed details.
Unlike smaller, common versions, the sheer volume of hand-carved gemstones and the architectural presence of this piece elevate it to a significant investment object. It is a botanical sculpture that offers a timeless "everlasting garden" aesthetic, serving as a sophisticated focal point for a high-end sideboard, mantel, or entry gallery.
It is in excellent vintage condition.
