Los 807 | A RARE AND FINELY CARVED BLACK AND WHITE JADE SNUFF BOTTLE
A RARE AND FINELY CARVED BLACK AND WHITE JADE SNUFF BOTTLE

SUZHOU SCHOOL, 1740-1850

The bottle is masterfully carved utilizing the markings in the stone with a continuos scene depicting a bearded sage with an attendant traversing a rocky pass beneath a pine tree, with another sage and a child crouching amidst rocky boulders and watching the geese in the pond below, as a monkey peers from an opening in the rocks. Multiple inscriptions are carved in the craggy rock faces, including a poetic couplet about the seasons and mountains, a line about geese, and a further one-line inscription reading Nangong bai shi (Nangong bowing to a rock).

2 5⁄8 in. (6.7 cm.) high, jadeite stopper
