A FINE CARVED CHILONG JADE CUP - China, 16th/ 17th c. - The deep slightly rounded sides rising from a short spreading foot, carved in high relief around the exterior with three chilong grasping the rim and looking into the vessel each forming a handle, the stone of pale celadon tone. - Important Austrian private collection, acquired according to records from the E & J Frankel Collection, New York in the 1980s Published: Zeileis 'Selected Chinese Jade from Seven Millennia', 1994, no. 334, p. 426 Similar examples of cups with chilong handles biting the rim can be found in the Qingbai porcelain wares of the Southern Song dynasty, and the comparison as one material as a point of reference for the other was noted in the catalogue to the exhibition organised by the Oriental Ceramic Society, Chinese Jade Throughout the Ages, London, 1975, pp.96 and 100, no.326. Two examples of similar Qingbai porcelain cups are illustrated by S.Pierson (ed.), Qingbai Ware: Chinese Porcelain of the Song and Yuan Dynasties, London, 2002, nos.41 and 42, where the author notes that it appears that production of both jade and porcelain versions was concurrent, and that further research would be required to determine which came first, or if both had an earlier, as yet unidentified, common root. There are a number of similar chilong jade cups in important museum collections throughout the world, most notably in the Palace Museum, Beijing: see for example the Compendium of Collections in the Palace Museum: Jade 7: Ming Dynasty, Beijing, 2011, nos.118, 119, 123, 124, 126 and 139. The cup exhibited as no.326 in the exhibition Chinese Jade Throughout the Ages, op.cit., was lent by the Musée Guimet, no.MR 204-585. It is also interesting to note that a related cup found favour in the Islamic world and was gifted by Shah Abbas I to the Ardebil Shrine in 1611; it is illustrated by S.Howard Hansford, Chinese Carved Jades, London 1968, pl.80B.
