佐治亚

2017年07月15日开拍

上一件下一件

拍品描述: Carved from hundreds thin layers of Vermillion red-orange lacquer, in shallow vessel form, wide broad cavetto tapered gracefully toward lipped rim, raised on narrow footed base. The interior intrigue carved in deep relief with Peonies blooms and foliate motif, revealed a deep three dimensional appearance. The exterior rim banded in high relief of scrolling tendril motif. The central underside is ebony lacquered. The tree peony or mudan (??) signifies the third month of the lunar calendar and symbolizes longevity, loyalty, happiness and eternal beauty.
Because of the way it sometimes grows as doubles, the peony appears to the Chinese like strings of cash coins and thus has come to symbolize prosperity and wealth.
For this reason, another name for the peony is fuguihua (???) which means "flower of wealth and honor".

Mark on base, six gilt scrip -KaiShu- characters mark, QianLong Reign Period of Great Qing.

The portion of the sale will benefit a local church in Atlanta area.

Dimension: 1" H x 12" Dia

LOT NOTES:

In its original form, cinnabar is crystallized red mercuric sulphide (HgS), the main ore bearing mercury. Cinnabar has been used for thousands of years as a coloring agent because of its intense red-orange color. It is obtained naturally by grinding ore into a fine powder then mixing the powder into dyes, paints and other finishes such as lacquer. It can also be manufactured by treating a mixture of liquid mercury and sulfur with potassium hydroxide. Cinnabar is the primary pigment in colors commonly referred to as vermillion and Chinese red.
Cinnabar is the color; lacquer is the material from which the objects are carved.
Thin layers of lacquer are applied over the basic form. Each layer must harden before applying the next. Eventually the layers are thick enough to carve. Depth of carving averages about one-eighth to one-quarter of an inch.
Carved lacquer from classical periods in Japan and China, 500-1700 AD, can have as many as 200-300 separate layers. Workshop records from those early periods speak of large pieces that took years to prepare and up to several years to carve.
Reddish-orange carved lacquer, or cinnabar, has been widely exported to the West for over three hundred years.
CONDITION
Some crackle, minor scratches and fading found on the ebony lacquered surface, network of fissures or cracks in a finish lacquer from climate changes. Over all in EXCELLENT condition.
