Set of Fishermen & Pirates $44.95

Vintage hand carved, hand crafted and hand painted set of 4 fishermen / pirates. You get two charming Captain figurines and two pirates. The most powerful pirate fleets of East Asia were those of Chinese pirates during the mid-Qing dynasty. Pirate fleets grew increasingly powerful throughout the early 19th century. The effects large-scale piracy had on the Chinese economy were immense. They preyed voraciously on China’s junk trade, which flourished in Fujian and Guangdong and was a vital artery of Chinese commerce. Lovely addition for a display curio. One-of-a-kind set.
