Description

A SMALL AND FINE LACQUER BOX, HAN DYNASTY

Published: Koos de Jong, Small China: Early Chinese Miniatures, 2021, p. 55, fig. 28.

China, 206 BC-220 AD. The lacquered wooden box is small and oval in shape, with an overhanging, domed lid. Both parts are finely decorated with scrolling motifs on a dark-brown lacquered ground, with some scrolls retaining remnants of red lacquer.

Provenance: V. Li, Casey Building, Hong Kong, 2013. Collection of Dr. Koos de Jong, acquired from the above. A Dutch art historian and collector, Dr. Koos de Jong has worked across several cultural institutions in the Netherlands from 1976, serving as the director of the European Ceramic Work Center in Den Bosch between 1999-2009, before retiring in 2009. He has authored hundreds of articles and several books on Dutch fine and decorative arts from the Middle Ages to the modern era. His scholarly interests expanded to Chinese material culture, culminating in the 2013 publication of Dragon & Horse: Saddle Rugs and Other Horse Tack from China and Beyond, a pioneering study on Chinese equestrian gear. Continuing this line of inquiry, his more recent book published in 2021, Small China: Early Chinese Miniatures, explores the largely overlooked world of Chinese miniature objects, combining archaeological research with art historical insight.
Condition: Overall good condition with expected wear, commensurate with age. Scattered chips, small losses, few age cracks, all with associated old repairs and touchups.
