Chinese carvings

By youthguy@randa…, 15 October, 2008
Description

There are seven "gods of plenty" in the set. I have two. Each carving holds something of food. My two carvings hold a fish and a gourd. They came to central NY in the 1800s. They are made from eucalyptus root and are very deep red in color. They probably date to around 1100 A.D. I have close to 50 pictures from different angles and in different detail.
