Chairman Mao Quotation on Silk in Japanese

This is a fine example of how Chairman Mao's message was conveyed to people other than the Chinese. Mao's words on silk in Chinese are certainly not common, and in other languages are far scarcer.

The impressive red on white lettering and specially embroidered boarder make this a highly desirable piece and if framed will be truly stunning.

Chairman Mao Bust

A Chairman Mao bust is a common sight in China. They usually are made of ceramic, or sometimes plastic or rubber. This bust, one of three unique Chairman Mao busts offered this month on The East is Red, is a very special bust made by what we believe to be a cast stone process designed to closely resemble white marble.

Molded Glass Chairman Mao Bust

The second of our unique Chairman Mao busts this month is a massive cream colored molded glass model. Chairman Mao is again shown in a classic pose, which because of the size, ensures that his presence is felt in whichever room he is placed.

For an added special effect, a small light can be placed inside the cavity to add a warm glow to his face.

Chairman Mao Glazed Bust

Our third and most stunning bust of Chairman Mao made from porcelain with a green glaze. This small bust is simply stunning to look at and appreciate. The glazing has spread thinner in spots to give greater definition to the features in Chairman Mao’s face and his uniform. The glazing has crazed over time, giving Chairman Mao a more dignified presence, showing that even 29 years after his death, that his image is still with us.

The coloring and type of glazed used is reminiscent of roof tiles commonly used on traditional Chinese courtyard houses.

Cultural Revolution Vanity Stand 

This is a very fine item from the Cultural Revolution, complete with three drawers and detachable mirror. It is in very nice condition and has aged well, showing a nice patina after more than 30 years.

It is just another example to the extent that revolutionary thinking permeated everyday life during the Cultural Revolution, so that from early morning to late at night, people would be constantly reminded of their leader and their obligations to the revolution.
