Mammoth tusk composition "Rich and auspicious"
Creative idea: Thanks to the exquisite craftsmanship of bone carving and the use of a precious mammoth tusk as a base, the work reveals an impressive scene of abundance and prosperity. Gold and silver treasures, like an inexhaustible spring, flow from the hands of the God of Wealth into a tripod filled with jewels, creating an image of a continuous influx of benefits.
A magical deer holding a lingzhi mushroom (ganoderma) in its mouth and a peach of immortality on its back symbolizes longevity and a happy life. Favorable clouds, soaring cranes and lush peonies, traditionally associated with wealth and luck, enhance the symbolic sound of the composition.
A single mammoth tusk serves as a base and at the same time as a decorative frame, forming a three-dimensional, multi-layered scene. The work embodies the desire for fame, prosperity and well-being, expressing sincere good wishes for prosperity and harmony.
