AN OUTSTANDING TURQUOISE 'THREE FRIENDS OF WINTER' VASE AND COVER, QIANLONG PERIODChina, 1736-1795. The vessel of flattened baluster shape, supported on a splayed foot and rising to a waisted neck, carved in high relief and intricate openwork around the sides to depict a pair of geese standing below a pine tree to one side, two swallows perched on prunus growing along the other side, and bamboo to the front. The matching cover similarly decorated with a pair of swallows on blossoming prunus.Together with a matching openwork hardwood stand, finely carved, dating from the same period. (2)Provenance: The private collection of Jules Speelman, London. Sotheby's Hong Kong, 2 April 2018, lot 3451, mid-estimate HKD 1,000,000 or approx. EUR 125,000 (converted and adjusted for inflation at the time of writing). Jules Speelman is a world-leading dealer and collector of East Asian art with 60 years of experience. In 1964 he joined his late father, Alfred, in the family business which already stretched back three generations to 19th century Holland and expanded into England around the turn of the century. Originally, A & J Speelman dealt with antiques, from European ceramics, silver, tapestries, and furniture to Chinese porcelain, and works of art. With his father, Jules gradually shifted the focus towards Asia and under Jules Speelman's skilled direction, A & J Speelman is now considered amongst the foremost dealers in Asian antiques, with a particular emphasis on figurative sculpture and works of art from the past 2000 years. Condition: Good condition showing old wear, as expected with minute chips and nicks to exposed areas, small old repairs and fills to natural fissures. The wood stand with small old repairs. Overall with remarkably fine, naturally grown patina and thus displaying exceptionally well. Given the fragile nature and age of this piece, the condition must be regarded as outstanding!Weight: 2 kg (excl. stand), 2.2 kg (incl. stand) Dimensions: Height 23 cm (excl. stand), 27 cm (incl. stand)Known in Chinese as lüsongshi (green pine stone), turquoise is a porous and relatively soft material that can be easily scratched and was therefore more commonly employed as an inlay or as an element of court dress accessories rather than for independent objects. Ranging in color from greenish hues to sky blue and frequently traversed by a dense matrix, turquoise demands exceptional imagination and technical skill to successfully align an auspicious subject with the stone's irregular character. Vessels of this scale carved in turquoise are therefore extremely rare. The present work exemplifies the craftsman's ability to achieve visual harmony between the motif of the Three Friends of Winter and the heavily veined stone, evoking a sense of archaism and quiet mystery, with its crackled surface serving as a meditation on both transience and endurance.Following the Qing conquest of Xinjiang in 1759, turquoise mines in the region provided the court with direct access to substantial sources of the stone. Long prized in Tibetan culture for its Buddhist associations with the wisdom of earth and sky, turquoise was readily adopted by the Qing court, as evidenced by objects such as the Qianlong Emperor's turquoise necklace worn during ceremonial rites at the Altar of the Moon, now in the National Palace Museum, Taipei, reference number 故00071687, and a gold stupa inlaid with hardstones, including turquoises, crafted on the Qianlong's orders to store the remains of his mother's hair, now in the Peabody Essex Museum, Salem.Literature comparison:For related vases of this type, see one carved with birds and water lilies on a slender body at Sotheby's Rome, 13th January 1973, lot 141; another carved with birds perched amidst floral branches on a flattened body, sold at Sotheby's London, 7th-8th May 1973, lot 68; and a third example with Guanyin and a small boy standing on a rock at Christie's London, 21st February 1968, lot 151.Auction result comparison:Type: RelatedAuction: Sotheby's New York, 11 September 2012, lot 339Estimate: USD 25,000 or approx.
