These are the last listings I will have of any bottles or netsukes that were left in my collection. I hope I have kept the best until last. All items cost £4 shipping worldwide for the first item and £2 (a 50% reduction) for each extra item won - once all items are paid for and mailed at the same time. This is a truly stunning Chinese piece. It is a wonderful vase shaped, naturally dark coloured Jade snuff bottle. It has a beautiful natural colour and pattern and is well polished. This has been finished off with a push on Jade stopper. This bottle is well hollowed out. What you see in the photo is what you get. The colours are as close as I can get them and all photos have been taken in natural light. Height: approx. 2.25 inches Width: approx. 1.35 inches at it's widest Depth: approx. 1.35 inches Please Read: Carved Stone - You can now choose from a wide selection of stone bottles, ranging from Agate to Jade and every thing in between. These bottles are selected not only for the carving work but the patterns in the stones themselves. Many are made from rare and difficult to find materials. Most of the stone bottles are carved in the homes of the artist to supplement their income, practicing an art that has been passed down through the generations.All bottles are described to the best of my ability and are sold in good faith. This would make a wonderful addition to a Snuff Bottle Collection, a Oriental art collection, a Miniature Collection or just a valued addition to anyone's home.......... COLOURS OF JADE Intense green, Mottled green & white, Browns, Orangy red, Yellow, Violets, Emerald (Imperial) green, Grey, White, Blue-Green, Dark red, Shades of red and Black. JADE: Jade is regarded as a symbol of the good, the beautiful and the precious. It embodies the Confucian virtues of wisdom, justice, compassion, modesty and courage. In ancient Egypt, Jade was admired as the stone of Love, Inner Peace, Harmony and Balance. In other Cultures it was regarded as a lucky or protective Gem. In recent times, people's understanding of this Gem, which fascinates not only the connoisseurs by its perfect interplay of hardness and toughness with an enchanting range of Colours and fine Lustre, has improved: and their esteem for it has been on the increase all over the world. 242 |
