China, Beijing, 1720-1780. Well carved in the form of a carp with short fins on its back and sides and neatly incised scales, its gaping mouth forming the rim of the bottle. The carp is being transformed into a dragon, clearly visible from the pair of horns which have sprouted from the carp’s head. The translucent stone is of a grayish-white hue with black and dark brown patches and veins as well as icy inclusions.

Expert’s note: The quality and sophistication of detail on this bottle are clear pointers to a Palace workshop provenance, as is the subject matter. The dragon carp is a symbol of a candidate passing the Imperial examinations and qualifying as an official. The symbolism came from the carp which were observed swimming up the Yellow River. According to legend these carp would leap the Longmen Falls, an extremely arduous task, and upon successful completion the fish would be transformed into a dragon. A bottle embodying this symbolism would possibly be given by the Emperor to the most successful candidates. The carp also symbolizes wealth since the Chinese word for it (yu) puns with yu meaning prosperity, and passing the Imperial examinations was a guarantee of prosperity.
