Mansion House Antiques & Fine Art has dated this piece to the 1920s.
The hand craftsmanship in making these superb examples would have taken many skilled hours,being both labour intensive re the hours taken to just produce one finished specimen,and all aspects done by hand and originally produced for the tourists to take home with them.
At the bases of each horn is depicted a fierce Tiger,shown growling at the dragon above.
The base of each horn has been hand carved from a soft wood and is ribbed in design with a light coat of varnish to seal the surface.
A fine matching pair in very good condition and still with the tiny red glass inset eyes attached in order to add realism.
