Lot 75: Two Figural Sculptures Comprising a Contemporary Abstract Ceramic Group and a Carved Bone Figure

This lot features two decorative figural items of contrasting styles. The first is a contemporary abstract ceramic sculpture finished in a high-gloss cobalt blue glaze. The piece is composed of sweeping, fluid forms that suggest a maternal figure sheltering a smaller, stylized form. It is accented with wide metallic bands in gold-tone and silver-tone finishes, adding a modernist aesthetic. No maker’s marks or signatures are visible on the ceramic body.

The second item is a traditional standing figure, carved from bovine bone, depicting an elder or immortal in layered robes holding a ceremonial object. The material shows characteristic natural graining and a warm cream colour. The figure is mounted on a carved dark wood stand featuring traditional scrolling openwork. No inscriptions or signatures are visible on either the bone figure or the wooden base.
