A CELADON AND RUSSET JADE FIGURE OF A CRANE, MING DYNASTY
明代青玉留皮仙鶴擺件
China, 1368-1644. The bird perched on a lotus leaf with the feet tucked under the body, its head turned, the feathers and eyes finely incised. The translucent stone of a deep celadon tone with russet veins and highlights as well as small areas of calcification.
Provenance: From the collection of Dr. Ferdinand and Dr. Gudrun Thaler-Szulyovsky, and thence by descent in the same family. The couple, who had both been practicing law, met in 1967 through their mutual passion for art. Together they built a substantial and diverse art collection over many decades, one of their first works of Asian art being a painting of Guan Yu, received as payment for legal services, from the prominent Styrian brewer Sigurd Reininghaus.
Condition: Good condition with significant old wear, commensurate with age. The stone with natural inclusions and fissures, some of which have developed into small hairlines, small nicks here and there.

We encourage you to read through these updates carefully (§34-50) to make sure you understand them. These updates are specifically designed to protect all serious and committed buyers from bidding against non-payers, who attempt to inflate prices without the intent of paying their auction bills.

Main points include:
- Bidders must complete their due diligence and clarify all questions about the objects before the auction.
