Vintage Tang-Style Terracotta Court Lady Figurine
Product Description
Add a touch of timeless, historic elegance to your decor with this beautiful Tang-style terracotta figurine. Depicting a classic Chinese court lady or attendant, this piece features an elegant posture, an elaborate traditional high hairstyle (chignon), and delicate remnants of original orange/terracotta and white slip pigments. She is gracefully holding a small box or offering.
With an aged, earthy patina that beautifully mimics ancient tomb pottery, this statue makes a striking conversational centerpiece for bookshelves, mantels, or entryway consoles.
• Material: Terracotta / Earthenware clay
• Style: Chinese Tang Dynasty style (Court Lady / Attendant)
• Details: Visible traces of vintage polychrome pigments (orange/peach and soft white)
• Condition: Beautiful vintage/antique look with intentional distressed texture and minor surface wear consistent with age, enhancing its authentic aesthetic.
Pottery Style.
• Authentic: Genuine tomb pottery with a hard, naturally bound calcium or mineral encrustation on the surface from centuries of burial. True Tang terracotta, low-fired earthenware. Over centuries underground, the clay has degraded slightly and loss a lot of its moisture weight, making this authentic figurine feel surprisingly lightweight for her size.
