拍品描述 翻译
China, probably Imperial workshops Beijing. Well hollowed, finely rendered as a large peach with a small mouth, the bottle is raised on leafy branches that issue leaves, while two monkeys clamber up the narrower sides, their spine incised with minute stipples. The turquoise stone displays natural darker markings and veins. Provenance: From the Francine and Bernard Wald Collection of Fine Snuff Bottles. Francine and Bernard Wald were a devoted couple and passionate snuff bottle collectors, with a particular love for agate bottles—amassing a collection of over 1,400 pieces. Active participants in the early ICSBS conventions, they acquired many works from leading dealers such as Hugh Moss and Robert Hall, Clare Chu and the Late Robert Kleiner. Francine, a physicist and teacher, and Bernard, a senior lawyer in NYC, often spent summers in Cape Cod coinciding with the sales held at Eldred's auctions. Other collectors, the Dickers, the Dorfs, the Golders, and the Hartmans would visit and ‘Fran and Bernie' as they were known colloquially, held a famed 'Spaghetti' party each year, with all the collectors present. Their prized agate bottles, especially those featuring monkeys—Bernie’s zodiac animal—were proudly displayed in their Greenwich Village home. The couple also wrote articles for the International Chinese Snuff Bottle Society. Condition: Very good condition with minor wear and tiny nibbles around the mouth, few natural fissures, some of which have developed into thin hairline cracks. Stopper: Coral, carved spoon Weight: 44.7 g Dimensions: Height including stopper 49 mm. Diameter mouth 5 mm. Most turquoise snuff bottles are of a distinctly green color that is attributable to the absorption of oils from the hand with much use. To the Qing Chinese, the stone was known as lüsongshi ('green pine stone'), whether green or blue, suggesting that green was the more common color. The Tibetan and Chinese turquoise was found originally both as green and blue, and much of what was used in the snuff-bottle world would have started life as green material. In China , it is clear that both green and blue veined material was equally valued. The evidence lies in snuff bottles made from other materials that evoke turquoise. Of the entire turquoise range of Qing glass snuff bottles, many more are of a green tint than a sky-blue one. Porcelain imitations of the material are even more informative. Both the green and blue varieties were regularly copied during the mid-Qing period. One of the finest imitation turquoise bottles is in the Ault Collection (Kleiner 1990, no. 131). It probably dates from the late eighteenth century and is of a distinctly green color. In the same publication, a magnificent and unique porcelain bottle made for the Master of the Xie Bamboos, whose hall name appears on other known porcelains of the first half of the nineteenth century, simulates a turquoise-matrix bottle with panels of calligraphy in iron-red on white. Not only is the color unambiguously green, it is as riddled with black matrix markings as any of the real material carved into bottles. Literature comparison: Compare a turquoise pomegranate-form snuff bottle, dated Qing dynasty, 6.3 cm long, in the National Palace Museum, Taipei, reference number 故雜001095N000000000. For two fruit-shaped turquoise bottles, see Chang Lin-sheng, Snuff bottles in the Collection of the National Palace Museum, Taipei, 1991, p. 266, nos. 403-404.
