Multi-tiered pagoda with bells. Chinese art. 19th century Ivory. Height 84 cm plus 4 cm black base. A substantial, vertically oriented pagoda composed of numerous superimposed levels, each defined by projecting eaves, openwork balustrades, and delicately carved architectural elements. Small bells hang from the roof edges, adding visual dynamism and ornamental refinement to the whole. The structure rises to a pyramidal finial, accentuating the sense of lightness and verticality. The ivory has a uniform patina that highlights the precision of the work and the clean details, demonstrating a high level of technical mastery. The piece belongs to the 19th-century Chinese decorative tradition, intended for contemplation and spiritual symbolism, and is a prime example of Eastern craftsmanship.
