World Coin Cache, Foo Dogs, Dragon Teapot & Chinese Doctor Doll

Description:
An eclectic collection of Asian-inspired collectibles and world treasures featuring a pair of red Foo Dog guardian figures, a blue-and-white dragon-form teapot, a Chinese Doctor Doll, a lacquered pillow-form trinket box, and an assortment of world coins and foreign currency.

The highlight of the lot is the Chinese Doctor Doll, also known as a Medical Doll or Diagnostic Lady. Historically, similar figures were used in traditional Chinese medicine, allowing women to discreetly indicate areas of pain or illness during consultations by pointing to the corresponding location on the figure.

The lacquered pillow-form box contains a variety of world coins and foreign currency, creating a fun treasure hunt for collectors. The Foo Dogs and dragon teapot provide a striking display of appeal and complement the collection's historical and cultural theme.
