Description

A LARGE GREEN JADE ‘CLOUD-SCROLL’ PENDANT, NEOLITHIC PERIOD, HONGSHAN CULTURE

China, c. 4000-3000 BC. The flat plaque carved in openwork in the form of a stylized scrolling cloud with a half-crescent shape opening. Subtly detailed with four curved ridges and grooves on each side. Pierced to the top for suspension. The translucent stone of a deep green tone with opaque dark inclusions, pale clouds, and small patches of creamy calcification.

Provenance: From a private collection in Austria, acquired circa in the 1950s. The collection of Laszlo Nagy Szervei, acquired in the 1990s in Vienna. A noted European private collection, acquired from the above. A copy of a provenance statement written and signed by Laszlo Nagy Szervei, confirming the above, accompanies this lot.
Condition: Very good condition, commensurate with age. Expected nibbling and few small losses to edges, minor signs of weathering and erosion, the stone with natural fissures, some of which may have developed into small hairlines.

Weight: 103 g
Dimensions: Length 19 cm

Expert's note: This distinctive type of jade with arcs surrounding a central whorl has been found among Hongshan excavations and is known as a 'hooked cloud'. When properly oriented the similarity of form to the more commonly seen pig dragon and known oracle script characters for Qiu- and Long-Dragon become strikingly visible.

Literature comparison:
Compare two closely related jade ‘cloud hook’ pendants, dated to the Neolithic period, 23.5 cm and 22.5 cm long, in the Liaoning Provincial Museum. Compare a related ‘cloud hook’ pendant, dated to the Hongshan culture, 13.7 cm long, in the Palace Museum, Beijing, accession number 新00200400.
