Vintage Chinese Zitan Wood Large Carved Scroll Weight With Cloud Dragons (3275)
Couldn't load pickup availability
Description
A Chinese hardwood carved large scroll weight. I believe this to be zitan wood as it sinks like a stone in water and does have a purple hint. The grain is very dense. It is carved with two cloud dragons facing a tied scroll with a traditional border. There are no names or makers details. Dating is very tricky and I think it is more likely vintage than antique although this is a very large chunk of a rare wood to use for such a piece.
Condition
Some shrinkage splits which are quite minor, most obvious to the carved border which is shown in close up, small examples to the sides which are less visible. Minor wear.
