ELEGANTE VIERGETEILTE WEISSE SCHEIBE
Jade
Nord-West-China
Sp. neolithische Qijia-Kultur, Nord-West-China, ca. 2200 - 1900 vor
DM. UM 12 CM, STÄRKE 2,5 - 3 MM
玉璧。中國，齊家文化，約公元前2200-1900 年。直徑約12 厘米，厚 0.25 x 0.3 厘米。維也納私人舊藏。

Diese Scheibe, eine weiße Baiyu-Jade, ist eine Huan, eine Bi mit größerer Innenöffnung.Diese Jade ist vierfach unterteilt, somit eine Lianhuan, worin das lian „zusammenhängen“ bedeutet. Dazu sind auf jedem der vier Segmente Ösen angebracht, diese haben - da von einer Seite gebohrt - unterschiedlich weite Öffnungen. Daran ist auch die richtige Seite dieser Huan sogleich zu erkennen. Besonders schön an dieser Jade ist das schwarzgraue Wolkige im Kontrast zu dem Weiß, weiters sind mehrere Bereiche gelblich, die Übergänge fließend. Das Stück ist beidseitig völlig eben und dünn geschliffen, die Transluzenz folglich sehr gut, im Durchlicht erscheinen die Kontraste noch stärker. Viergeteilte Scheiben sind selten, häufiger sind dreigeteilte. Altersmerkmale, Adern sowie Stellen am äußeren Rand mit Verwitterung, die Politur weitgehend gut erhalten.

An Vergleichsbeispielen nur dreigeteilte Scheiben, etwa in „Chines Jade“ des Britischen Museums London in Nr. 7:9, zeitlich jedoch später, ebenso das Beispiel in „Ancient Chinese Jades“ des FoGelbgold Art Museums in Massachusetts, Nr. 92, die Größen ungefähr gleich.

Diese Jade wird in dem Buch von FILIPPO SALVIATI: “THE MYSTERIOUS STONE: Chinese Jades from the Neolithic to the Han in private collections” publiziert (Erscheinungstermin Frühjahr 2017).

Notes by Prof. Salviati: Compare three rings, each formed by three arch-shaped sections, from the Sam Myers collection and published in F. Salviati, Radiant Stones. Archaic Chinese Jades / Pierre Radieuses, Hong Kong 2000, nos.71-73. A ring carved in a similar type of jade and from the collection of R. H. Ellsworth (1929-2014), has been sold at Christie’s New York on 19 March 2015 (Sale 11420), Lot 560: http://www.christies.com/lotfinder/lot/a-white-jade-bi-disc-china-shang-western-5876617-details.aspx?from=salesummery&intObjectID=5876617&sid=99a72b8d-24b2-40a7-a133-4f2f8791a87e
