FAQs

Terracotta soldiers were originally created to accompany emperors into the afterlife, serving as protective guards and reflecting the military hierarchy and burial traditions of ancient Chinese dynasties.

Authentic and replica figures are traditionally crafted from local earthenware clay, moulded in sections, hand-detailed, and fired at high temperatures before being finished with pigments or natural weathering.

Authentication involves examining the composition of the clay, signs of natural ageing, tool marks, and firing characteristics, distinguishing ancient artefacts from later reproductions and decorative copies.

These commanding pieces work well as focal points in large entryways, libraries, or living spaces, paired with neutral backdrops and minimalist furniture to highlight their sculptural form.

Preservation requires keeping the pieces in stable indoor environments away from excessive moisture and direct sunlight, dusting gently with a dry, soft cloth to protect the surface finish.
