A SPINACH GREEN JADE MINIATURE 'ARCHAISTIC' VASE, 18TH-19TH CENTURY
Opinion: This archaistic vase comes from a distinct group of spinach green archaistic miniature jade vessels, all created after varying ancient models, possibly by Imperial command. While it is not entirely clear what purpose these carvings served, they all share distinct features, such as perfectly matched, elaborate wood stands, 'razor sharp' relief carvings, outstanding purity of the jade, and an average size of 12-15 cm.
China. Of flattened square baluster form, the tapering body carved in relief with a writhing chilong, its body terminating in interlocked fish heads on the lower end, the neck flanked by two loop handles, the short sides with archaistic scroll designs, the rim and foot each with a key-fret border. The stone is of a fine and pure spinach green tone with scattered black specks and patches.
Provenance: An old English private collection, thence by descent in the same family. Old label to the base reading 'Taotie masks and dragons in archaic style. Chien Lung. 69'.
Condition: Good condition with minor old wear, some nibbling to exposed areas. The stone with natural inclusions and fissures, some of which may have developed into microscopic hairlines over time. The wood stand with few small nicks and chips.
Weight: 212.3 g (excl. stand)
Dimensions: Height 12.2 cm (excl. stand) and 14.1 cm (incl. stand)
With a finely carved, open worked, and fitted stand dating to the same period. (2)
