Chinese Rare Carved Celadon Jade Scholar Stone Mountain, Monkeys at Play, China
-
Description
What are you bidding on today is an exceptional carved celadon color jade scholar stone mountain.
The quality of the jade is the best that I have seen in a very long time. The carver was a master in the art of jade sculpture.
There are a total of five monkeys, two playing, one resting and two other at the top of the mountain about to clime down to see what is doing on.
On the side of the stone are two bat Feng Shui symbols, there is a wonderful pin tree with its branches hanging down.
The depth of the carving give it a three dimension quality that you seldom see so when you do its on the best pieces.
Pieces of this quality are extremely rare and for that reason very difficulty hard to find. The jade rests on a beautifully carved dark wood stand. The stand has carvings with pine trees. a work of art.
This piece came to me from a great old collection of rare and unusual Chinese art objects along with other items I am listing. - More Information
