A pearl white deer standing on a golden ruyi cloud, cast in solid brass and finished by hand.
In Chinese tradition the ruyi – the curved sceptre this figure stands on – is the emblem of ‘as you wish’: things turning out the way you hope. The deer carries the wish for prosperity, because the word for deer sounds like the word for an official’s salary. Put together, it is a figure for wanting good things to arrive.
The deer is pearl white over brass, with gold tone antlers that branch upward and a golden cloud base that curls back on itself. At 42 cm tall it has real presence on a console, a sideboard or a deep shelf.

Because every piece is finished by hand, the depth of the finish and the small details vary slightly from one piece to the next. Screens also show colour a little differently. That variation is normal and is not a fault.
