Chinese glazed porcelain roof tile of a warrior riding a rabbit. The manufacture of glazed tiles was standardized in the Ming dynasty and during the Qing dynasty, glazed tiles became ever more popular for top-tier buildings, including palace halls in the Forbidden City and ceremonial temples like the Heavenly Temple. The piece is signed and mounted on a presentation display stand.

Occupying the 4th position in the Chinese Zodiac, the Rabbit symbolizes such character traits as creativity, compassion, and sensitivity. Rabbits are friendly, outgoing and prefer the company of others. They also prefer to avoid conflict.
