This charming ceramic figurine depicts a Chinese court lady, rendered in the classic Tang Dynasty "fat lady" aesthetic which celebrated a more curvaceous and elegant feminine ideal. She is dressed in a flowing, floor-length robe with voluminous sleeves, glazed in a warm mustard yellow with splashes of emerald green around the shoulders and neck. In her right hand, she delicately holds a circular green fan against her chest. Her face is finely detailed with a serene expression, characterized by slender arched brows and a subtle smile, while her hair is styled in a high, elaborate black bun topped with a vibrant red ornament.

The piece exhibits a wonderful sense of age, with a matte, slightly weathered finish and visible earthen remnants on the base, suggesting it was inspired by traditional tomb pottery. The hollow-cast form and the soft, rounded contours of her silhouette give the figure a graceful, dignified presence that would make it a standout decorative accent in a variety of interior settings.
