A rare example of a very early period Chinese pottery dancer of unusual design and in very good condition.
This dancer is all in yellowish-brown color, the facial feature is portrayed, the movement of his body is fluid.
It is well moulded and sculpted in the form of a smiling dancer, wearing traditional long elegant gown of the period which falls gracefully to the floor accentuating the slim silhouette and flaring dramatically at the base level.
The figures' arms are joined at the waist hidden within the water sleeves forming a muff effect.
This pottery figurine is full of charm and joy, and the details are portrayed to the smallest detail, which truly reflects the peak of sculpture art in the Han Dynasty.
There are excellent remains of the color pigments with red gown borders and dark brown to black accents.
There is an excellent patina of age and exposure with encrustations and calcifications. The condition is excellent.
