A PALE CELADON AND RUSSET JADE FIGURE OF A MONKEY, QING DYNASTY
清代青白玉留皮雕猴
Sold for €1,430
including Buyer's Premium
China, 1644-1912. Carved in the round as a monkey crouching, holding his coiled tail, the face finely incised with large bulging eyes. A hole pierced through the arm and foot for suspension as a pendant. The translucent stone of a pale celadon stone with russet skin and veining.
Provenance: From the personal collection of Susan Chen, Hong Kong, and thence by descent in the family. Susan Chen (d. 2014) was a prominent Hong Kong collector and dealer during the 1980s and 1990s. A long-time member and supporter of the Oriental Ceramics Society, she created the Sze Yuan Tang and Feng Wentang Collections together with her husband Anthony Hardy. Her collections consisted of a wide range of objects, from modern paintings and calligraphies to bronzes, ancient ceramics, and jades, which the couple collected for more than 30 years. In 2016, Bonhams sold parts of the jade collection, which at the time was hailed as the most successful sale of the last decade in this category, reaching a total of HKD 178,000,000.
Condition: Very good condition with minor old wear, small nick to the tail. The stone with natural inclusions and fissures, some of which have developed into small hairline cracks over time.
