4 Chinese Polychrome Wooden Architectural Posts

East Asia, China, Qing Dynasty, ca. 19th to early 20th century CE. A set of four carved wooden architectural posts, each surmounted by a lotus-form finial and decorated with relief-carved floral, auspicious characters, bird, and fruit motifs in bright polychrome hues. The thick cylindrical bases are cut with long rectangular openings and smaller square apertures designed to receive wooden beams, indicating use as structural supports such as newel posts for stair railings or balcony balustrades. The elaborate lotus finials suggest placement at or just below eye level where the decorative carving would be fully visible. Size: 7" W x 19" H (17.8 cm x 48.3 cm) Item # 200175
