Message Here are images I promised, in the meantime I went back to pin this Chinese figure down and came up with another Chinese folklore deity called CAISHEW, God of Wealth and Prosperity, often seen during Chinese New Year celebration to this day, where men dress up with long fake beard, fancy clothes and head dress for parties. Images represent a metal statue which is 4 feet high, a metal figurine's back, and a silk wall hanging of Caishew holding a ruyi spectre and sometimes an ingot in the other hand. Post a Response |
