A LARGE AND FINE CHINESE WHITE JADE CARVED BRUSH POT, MID-QING DYNASTY, 18TH/19TH CENTURY
Carved from a single block of fine white jade, this brush pot is of cylindrical form with gently tapering sides, supported on a foot ring and set on a hardwood stand inlaid with silver wire. The stone is of pure, translucent quality, lustrous and unblemished.
The exterior is finely carved in high relief with a continuous mountain landscape. Steep cliffs, trees, streams, and pavilions are depicted in lively detail, while figures of men, women, and children traverse winding paths, each animated with individuality and charm. The decoration encircles the vessel without beginning or end, creating an unbroken panoramic composition in the manner of tongjing shanshui (continuous landscape painting). It's with a fitted hongmu stand. The stand inlaid with silver wire.
Imperial jade carving of the Qing dynasty was distinguished by its abundant material, technical precision, and refined design. Supplied with the finest Hetian jade from Xinjiang, court workshops were able to achieve works of both elegance and grandeur. This brush pot, with its fluid lines, naturalistic detail, and vivid human presence, epitomises the highest standards of Qing jade craftsmanship and ranks as a masterpiece of the genre.
清中期 白玉雕大筆筒
此筆筒以整塊上乘白玉雕製，呈圓筒形，器身微微收束，下承圈足，配紫檀木座，座面嵌飾銀絲。玉質潔白通透，光澤柔潤，無瑕可見。
外壁高浮雕連綿山水景致，峭壁、林木、溪流、亭閣細緻生動，人物男女老幼穿行於曲徑之中，神態各異，栩栩如生。紋飾環繞器身，無始無終，構成一幅通景山水畫卷。配紅木座，座面嵌飾鍍金銀絲。
清代宮廷玉雕以料豐、工精、意雅著稱。新疆和田玉供應充足，使得造辦處得以創作兼具典雅與氣勢之佳作。此筆筒線條流暢，細節自然，人物生動，堪為清代玉雕工藝之典範，實屬同類器物中之上品。
