Chinese Pair of Seals by Ma Gongyu 马公愚篆刻
Attractive pair of leisure seals by the seal carver Ma Gongyu 马公愚 (1890 – 1969).
Foo lions as handles, side engraving with signature: Ma Gongyu.
As actual seals 12 characters have been engraved: 聊浮遥以相羊 and 聊浮游以道遥 liao fu yao yi xiang yang (and) liao fu you yi dao yao. (just floating it looks like a goat in the distance – just floating and swimming like a path in the distance).
Each one is 20 x 20 x 50 mm, good condition.
