The composition is painterly as well as scholastic, and the execution is demonstrative of complete mastery of the glass carving skills. The first inscription is a line from Ai Lion Shuo (Ode to the Lotus) by Zhou Dunyi (1017-1073). It compares the beauty of the lotus flower that grows unblemished from mud on the bottom of a pond to virtues men ought to possess. The seal ‘chen xin ru shui’ comes from the Biography of Zheng Chong in the Book of Han. Zheng was head of chancery in the court of Liu Xin who enjoyed the confidence of the Emperor until he began having problems with the Empress Dowager Fu and her court favorite Dong Xian. Zheng was in high demand as an official, but after falling from favor, the Emperor accused Zheng of embezzlement because of his fame. Zheng replied, ‘chen men ru shi, chen xin ru shui’ (It is like a bazaar outside my door, but my heart is as pure as water). The seal ‘bing hu’ is an abbreviation of the last line of the famous four-line poem by Wang Changling (690-756): ‘yi pian bing xin zai yu hu’ (my heart is as bright as crystal ice in a jar of jade).Auction result comparison: Type: Closely related Auction: Bonhams New York, 17 March 2014, lot 8003 Price: USD 25,000 or approx.

1957 BSA DBD34 Gold Star - Race Trim Registration Number: TBA Frame Number: TBA Possibly the most successful production racing motorcycle ever, the post-war Gold Star formed the mainstay of clubman's racing in the 1950s. Its domination of the Isle of Man Clubman's TT led to the event being dropped after Gold Star rider Bernard Codd's 1956 Senior/Junior double victory. For the majority of enthusiasts the 500cc DBD34 in Clubman's trim is the epitome of the 'Goldie'. The DBD, the ultimate road going 500 Gold Star, appeared in 1956 when the famous RRT2 close-ratio gearbox and 190mm front brake became standard equipment. From then on BSA's perennially popular sporting single changed little until its much lamented demise in 1963. Today, the Gold Star remains one of the most highly sought after of post-war British motorcycles and is supported by a most enthusiastic owners' club. This DBD Goldie 500, according to the VCMC letter accompanied with the bike, comprises a 1957 frame with 1961 engine, fitted with a Lucas racing magneto, Bing carburettor, SC T gearbox and Lyta alloy fuel tank. Not currently road registered and in full race trim, this wonderful Goldy would be ideal for classic parades and competition use.
