拍品描述

Large set of yellow jade carved seals "Directional Beasts", Han dynasty Exceptional set of five seals with base, carved in yellow jadeof pale yellowish-green tone. The piece is a superb representation of the imperial cosmological order, with the central power (the Emperor) flanked by the four directional guardians. The grip of the central seal is sculpted in round bulk as an Imperial Dragon. At the four corners, the lesser seals are surmounted by the Four Auspicious Beasts (四象): the Dragon (East), the Phoenix (South), the Tiger (West) and the Dragon Turtle (North), guardians of the four celestial quadrants. The plinths of the five seals, as well as the elaborate architectural base that houses them, are profusely decorated in bas-relief with a dense and intricate archaizing geometric pattern framing four taotie masks. The base, in addition, shows between the plinths the round carving of small archaic incense burners. The matrix of the central seal reveals a relief carving of four characters in archaic script: "劉弘印璽". The dies of the lesser seals also bear inscriptions. Han Dynasty (206 BC - 220 AD). Measures: 6.6 x 2.9 x 2.8 cm (x4); 10.3 x 5.5 x 5.5 x 5.5 cm (x1); 16.5 x 15 x 13 cm. Total weight: 1681 g Provenance: - Important collection of Tommy Lam, Hong Kong, since 1980.
