Chinese Diorama







Exceptional and highly detailed Chinese diorama.  The very appealing scene depicts Chinese pagodas set in lush mountains with boats entering the harbor below.  The diorama is composed of shell, mother of pearl and assorted hard stones and is framed in a black lacquer frame with brushed chrome hangers.  It is in excellent condition and is signed by the artist.  This is a one of a kind find.  35" l., 24" h., 2 1/2" w.  Chinese, c. 1950  SOLD
