Rostre d’espadon sculpté avec motifs de Dragon et Phoenix – Xiphias Gladius – (Espèces non citées) 2

Description

This sculpted swordfish rostrum (Xiphias Gladius) is a magnificent object of traditional Indonesian handicrafts.

At the heart of Chinese mythology are four spiritual creatures (in Chinese - Sì Shòu, in Japanese - Shishin). Two of the most powerful of the four celestial animals are the dragon and the
Phoenix.

The dragon and the phoenix are the perfect pair in Feng Shui. Dragon is "yang", while Phoenix is "yin", and they complement each other by creating yin-yang balance to ensure marital happiness
successfully. This celestial couple is the symbol of eternal love.
It takes not less than 4 to 5 days for the most experienced craftsmen to engrave the different sculptures of these rostres.

The rostrum is 84 cm long. Shipping protected and cared
