Vintage Chinese Rosewood Statue

Here's a strange Chinese Statue carved out of Rosewood. We purchased this in an estate sale and don't really have any idea who the mythical figures were supposed to represent. The statue is unsigned and very heavy (15lbs). The statue is 17-1/2" high x 11-1/2" wide x 9" deep.

Interesting statue, but we don't know anything about it. If anyone is an expert on these figures please drop us a note. I'm just placing a few photos here until I have a chance to put a slideshow together.
