A WHITE AND BROWN JADE 'LOTUS, CRAB AND MILLET' BRUSH WASHER AND MATCHING WOOD STAND, 18TH CENTURYChina. Exquisitely carved as a furled lotus leaf, finely detailed with veins, the curled stem serving as the foot and handle of the vessel, one side carved with a clambering crab. The superbly polished translucent stone of a pure white tone with pale sugar brown shadings and few russet inclusions and veins.Provenance: An old English private collection. A Hungarian private collection, acquired from the above. Condition: Very good condition with minor wear and few tiny nibbles. The stone with natural fissures, some of which have developed into small hairline cracks over time. The wood stand with minor wear, few expected age cracks, and small losses.Weight: 203.7 g (the washer) and 84.2 g (the stand) Dimensions: Length 11 cmThe matching wood stand, probably huali, lacquered and finely carved in openwork as two lotus leaves borne on curled stems further issuing lotus pods and millet stalks. (2)This brush washer is an exceptional example of the level of carving achieved by craftsmen in the 18th century. From the exquisitely detailed veins of the lotus leaf and modeling of the crab, to the fluid naturalistic form of the leaf, the carving has been expertly positioned and composed within the pebble to ensure minimal wastage and the clever incorporation of the brown portion of the stone to highlight the crab and stem.Lotus-leaf brush washers and water droppers were popular from the Ming dynasty, and were produced in various materials including porcelain, agate, bronze and jade. Such vessels are an example of the ideal natural world that was miniaturized and brought into the scholar's studio. These perfect representations of nature, which encompassed a range of objects including boulder carvings, brush pots and brush washers, proved a means of inspiration and escape for the scholar who was caught in the day-to-day duties of officialdom. An old name in Chinese for crab was jia, a reference to the creature's shell, and the word for lotus is lian.Such scenes were also imbued with auspicious meaning. Together, the crab and lotus formed the rebus lian ke jia di, meaning 'first place in consecutive examinations'. The lotus is also called hehua, and the common name for crab, xie, also combines to form the phrase hexia which means 'harmony'.Expert's note: It is rare to find a brush washer in white and brown jade, as this combination of colors was usually reserved for figural jades. The lapidary has masterfully utilized the different shades of the stone and polished it to a high translucency to further heighten the awe-inspiring effect, and even added a matching stand which strikingly complements the depiction, altogether leaving no doubt that the present lot was made during the 18th century.
