This piece is carved from carefully selected small-leaf red sandalwood (Pterocarpus santalinus) and is a Silk-Feather Sandalwood Carving table screen. An auspicious phoenix stands with its head raised, perched atop a rock, accompanied by secluded bamboo, with clouds and the moon veiled in the sky above. With fine chisels, the artist carves the phoenix’s plumage layer by layer, every feather delicately rendered. Its tail feathers cascade gracefully downward, while it raises its head and calls aloud, majestic yet full of life. The rocks are rugged and vigorous, the tall bamboo upright, creating a harmony of movement and stillness. Since ancient times, the phoenix has been an auspicious bird; its call symbolizes that good news is near and blessings will come. The rock suggests stability, while bamboo embodies the noble integrity of a gentleman. The deep tone of the wood lends the scene antique elegance and dignified richness. The carving reveals the craftsman’s ingenuity, condensing an auspicious and ethereal artistic conception into a compact table screen. As a desk display, it fully showcases the great beauty of Eastern wood carving.
