Some scholars have suggested that the fifth character under the Qianlong mark could have been a way to number the large group of objects in a correct order, see H. Brinker and A. Lutz, Chinese Cloisonne: The Pierre Uldry Collection, New York, 1989, pp. 74-79.The form of this four-lobed box supported by a broad foot rim directly references the crabapple (haitang), which could be combined with other emblems to create auspicious rebuses. Its second character, 'tang', is homophonous with the character for 'hall' and, by extension, 'the family home'. For examples of Imperial objects of the Qing court of related haitang shape, see a bamboo tray at Bonhams Hong Kong, 24 November 2012, lot 323 (see fig. 1), and a pair of gilt bronze and cloisonne jardinieres at Bonhams London, 8 November 2012, lot 250 (see fig. 2).Auction result comparison:Type: Closely relatedAuction: Christie's New York, 24 September 2021, lot 930Price: USD 25,000 or approx.

A MOTHER-OF-PEARL INLAID BLACK LACQUER 'ROMANCE OF THE WESTERN CHAMBER' BOX AND COVER, BY JIANG QIANLI, KANGXI PERIODChina, 1662-1722. Of circular form, supported on four short feet, covered in black lacquer, the cover finely inlaid in mother-of-pearl depicting a scene from Romance of the Western Chamber with a couple sitting on a scholar's rock in a fenced courtyard and a lady secretly watching, the moon rising above the fence, all encircled by a geometric border. The interior inlaid in mother-of-pearl with the seal of Jiang Qianli.Inscriptions: To the interior, 'Qianli'.Provenance: The Strong National Museum of Play, accession number 76.33.16 a (lacquered to base and interior of the cover). Old label 'made in China' to the base. Margaret Woodbury Strong (1897-1969) grew up in a prosperous family of collectors. Her interests ranged so widely that by 1960 she had amassed more than 27,000 collectible items and works of art. The vast majority of her collections related in some way to play and as her accumulation grew, Margaret planned a museum to house her collection. It eventually opened to the public in 1982, and grew dramatically over the following decades, expanding its collections, facilities, and resources, now spanning over 285,000 square feet. Today, the Strong National Museum of Play (known as just The Strong Museum or simply The Strong) is the only collections-based museum in the world devoted solely to the study of play. Condition: Very good condition with old wear, traces of use and age, a minuscule chip to the foot, expected minor age cracks, microscopic losses and nicks.Weight: 117.2 g Dimensions: Diameter 9.3 cmJiang Qianli, alias Qiushui, was a master craftsman from Yangzhou in Jiangsu province. For early studies of Jiang's work see Li Zhongqing 'A Mother-of-Pearl Lacquer Tray by Jiang Qianli', Wenwu, 1959, no. 11, pp. 59-61, and Paul Moss, Emperor, Scholar, Artisan, Monk - The Creative Personality in Chinese Works of Art, London, 1984, page 258. Jiang's name is also mentioned in a number of historical records, including the 1810 edition of the Jiaqing Yangzhou fu zhi (Chronicles of Yangzhou Prefecture in the Jiaqing period) in which Zhang Shiyuan and Yao Youtian record:"During the early years of the Kangxi reign, the scholar Zha Erzhan resided in Weiyang [another name for Yangzhou]. He was an accomplished painter of level distance landscape and the Mi school style of painting. An inch of paper or a foot of silk would be cherished if they were by his hand. There was also Jiang Qiushui whose skill produced mother-of-pearl inlaid lacquerware that was noted for its exquisiteness. These wares were widely sought after for use at banquets. A couplet says, 'Where there are drinking cups and serving trays, there one finds Jiang Qiushui. Where there are scroll paintings, there one finds Zha Erzhan'."The Romance of the Western Chamber, written by Wang Shifu (1250-1300) was immensely popular among all levels of society. Woodblock illustrations in the many editions helped conventionalize images that were instantly recognizable to the general public, thus creating a corpus of motifs that was widely used by painters, silk embroiderers, lacquer workers and other craftsmen.Professor Herbert Giles, whose History of Chinese Literature was published in 1924, refers to the Xixiang Ji as the play “which will best repay reading”. It is the typical story where a handsome student and beautiful girl attempt to cross the social divide, aided and incited by the girl's maid. The dialogue is punctuated with images of wind, snow, moonlight, and flowers, emphasizing both the passion and the romance felt by the struggling couple.Auction result comparison: Type: Closely related Auction: Sotheby's Hong Kong, 7 April 2014, lot 48Price: HKD 325,000 or approx.
