Estimate value
€ 1 800 – 2 000
China. Ming-Dynastie.

Elfenbein mit fein geglätteter Oberfläche, teils dunkler Gebrauchspatina und Altersrissen. Rechteckige Form, nach oben schmaler werdend und leicht gebogen. Zeremonialstäbe (hu) sind
seit der Tang-Dynastie in Verwendung. Sie bilden einen Teil der höfischen Gewandung und
verdeutlichen die Würde des Trägers. Es gab hu aus Jade, Elfenbein und Edelhölzern, die
teils vom Kaiser für Verdienste verliehen wurden. Hu kamen in der Qing-Dynastie außer
Gebrauch, wurden aber als Gelehrtenobjekte gesammelt. Länge 44,5-49cm. Jeweils präsentiert auf einem Metallgestell. Zustand A/B.
