拍品描述 翻译


Please note this Lot is to be sold at No Reserve. 本拍品不設底價

China, 206 BC-8 AD. Of circular form, finely carved in low relief with a central spiral design encircled by lappet motifs, all interspersed by neatly incised cross-hatched designs and curved lines. The back with a central circular aperture flanked by two small pierced holes. The stone of a pale celadon tone with dark gray and cloudy inclusions as well as areas of white calcification. Good polish and elegant luster.

Provenance: Collection of Harry Geoffrey Beasley (1881-1939) and thence by descent to his widow Irene Beasley. Collection of Alfred William Cowperthwaite (1890-1964), acquired from the above c. 1939 and thence by descent in the same family. Harry Geoffrey Beasley (1881-1939) was a British anthropologist and museum curator who developed an important ethnographic collection during the early 20th century that is now held in various British museums. With his wife Irene, Beasley set up the Cranmore Ethnographical Museum which eventually held more than 6,000 objects of ethnographical interest. The Beasleys collected objects from across Europe, buying from auction houses and local museums to expand the collection, which contained material from the Pacific, Asia, Africa, and Northwestern America. Beasley wrote numerous articles for anthropological journals and was considered an expert in his field. He died in 1939 and his collection was stored with the British Museum collections during the war, which was fortunate as the Cranmore Museum was destroyed by bombing. After the war substantial portions of the collection were passed to the British Museum, the Royal Museum in Edinburgh, the Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology, the University of Cambridge, the Pitt Rivers Museum, and the Merseyside County Museum. Other pieces, such as the present lot, were sold by his widow and, after her death in 1974, by their daughters. Alfred William Cowperthwaite (1890-1964) was a contributor to the Cranmore Museum and became good friends with Harry Beasley. Shortly after Harry Beasley’s death, he acquired a number of objects from Irene Beasley, including the present lot.
Condition: Good condition with minor old wear, minuscule nibbling, minor signs of weathering and erosion, and iron rust encrustations. The stone with natural fissures, some of which have developed into small hairline cracks over time.
