Xiangqi Guard Shi Pieces Figurines Chinese Chess 象棋 仕 Ceramic Green Brown

Description

This listing is for
two ceramic figurines
that I believe to be pieces for the game of
Xiangqi (象棋)
.  Both have the character
仕
imprinted on the bottom, which is the symbol for the red
Shi (Guard or Advisor)
piece in that game.  The other character appears to be just the leftmost part of the first character in the Chinese word for red, although there could be a different meaning intended that I am unaware of.
The shorter figure is approximately 3" tall, while the taller figure is about 4 1/4" tall.  Assuming I am correct in identifying these, I do not know what set they would have originally come from but they would require a relatively large board, with the squares needing to be 2 inches to a side at the absolute minimum (See 4th and 5th Photos above for measurements).  The figurines are a very subdued and somewhat translucent shade of green over a natural brown.
These pieces are not new, and they do have some wear.  Most noticeably, both are heavily crazed.  For more condition information,
please read my condition description above and refer to my included photographs
.  If you have particular condition-related concerns, I can also take and send additional photographs upon request.

international shipping
