| A bronze alloy seal head of the Guanyin, Goddess of Mercy, mounted on a bronze base with a relief stamp (Chop). On the back of the head are some characters that are difficult to read but do include the word Guanyin. The 4 characters on the seal are: 大清李, namely, Made by Mr Li in Qing Dynasty. The detailing on the headdress is very fine and she has a lovely benign expression. The seal measures 4 high by 2 wide by 2 deep. Excellent condition and patina a few areas of verdis gris patina have already started developing which lead us to date the piece to the late Qing Dynasty, circa 1875-1910. | |||||||||||
