A RARE CARVED ARCHAISTIC ‘KUILONG’ TURQUOISE GLASS VASE, MID-QING DYNASTY

China, 18th-19th century. Of tapering form, rising from a short circular foot to a waisted neck with a sprawling mouth rim, the body carved in relief with an archaistic design of two pairs of intertwining kuilong, each forming a stylized long-character, between an incised leaf border to the top and lappet border to the bottom.

Provenance: Old European private collection.
Condition: Excellent condition with only minor wear, two microscopic nicks to base.

Weight: 193,5 g
Dimensions: Height 11.2 cm

The carving on the present vase shows strict “clarity” combined with sophisticated craftsmen’s skills
resulting in an overall “warm” appearance. Claudia Brown and David Rabiner note that the thinness of the body and the "clarity and warmth" of a ruby-red bowl from the Qianlong period set it apart from Imperial productions, and that it is more likely to have been made in the glasshouses of Guangzhou. They also note that the thinness and fragility of the glass from Guangzhou was remarked upon as early as the 18th century (Clear as Crystal, Red as Flame, China Institute in America, New York, 1987, p. 29). It therefore does not seem absolutely unreasonable to date the present vase to the 18th century.

Literature comparison:
Compare a related archaistic ruby-red glass bowl, attributed to the glasshouses of Guangzhou, illustrated by Claudia Brown and David Rabiner in Clear as Crystal, Red as Flame, China Institute in America, New York, 1987, page 29.
