Two deer leaping forward side by side, necks stretched, antlers sweeping back.
Chao yue – to leap beyond – is what the pair is for: passing what came before, going further than expected. Chinese deer carvings use the animal for prosperity because the word for deer sounds like the word for an official’s salary, and two deer in motion are the wish that the next step is a step up. It is a common gift for a promotion, a new business or a graduation.
Two sizes are available. The small pair is finished in gold; the large pair is a mottled blue-green with gold hooves. Both stand on a plain wooden base.
Product details

Large: 75 x 19 x 72 cm, 14.3 kg, mottled green finish
Material: solid brass, lost wax cast
Because every piece is finished by hand, the depth of the colour 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.
Dispatch and delivery
Dispatched within 1-3 business days from China with tracked shipping. The large pair is heavy, so it travels in a reinforced box with foam padding. Most orders arrive about 2 weeks after dispatch, a little longer in peak season or for remote destinations. Import duties, if any, are the buyer’s responsibility.
