Lot details

Published: Filippo Salviati, 4000 Years of Chinese Archaic Jades, Edition Zacke, Vienna 2017, page 21, no. 20. Salviati notes: “No. 20 has a strongly emphasized abstract look which departs significantly from the general design of most of these ornaments. The abstract shape (…) seems to evoke the profile of an animal.”

China, c. 4000-3000 BC. Finely carved in openwork as a single unit of a cloud-scroll with subsidiary arched segments protruding from the corners. The top is pierced with a circular aperture. The translucent stone is of a pale green tone with cloudy-white inclusions.

Provenance: From the private collection of Irene and Wolfgang Zacke (1942-2022). The couple has been active in the art trade for well over half a century and were one of the first in Austria to offer Asian works of art in their gallery, starting in 1968. Since the late 1980s, they have been collecting ancient Chinese jades, building an extensive and multiply published collection over the decades.
Condition: Very good condition with minor old wear and minuscule nibbling here and there. Some encrustations and minuscule surface alterations.

Weight: 21.7 g
