A SANDWICHED PINK GLASS 'LOTUS' SNUFF BOTTLE, QING DYNASTYChina, 1780-1850. Of flattened ovoid form, rising from an oval foot to an everted neck, the body neatly carved and incised with five rows of overlapping lotus petals in relief, emerging from a green leaf-form base. The opaque glass of a soft pink color sandwiched between a dark pink layer and the emerald-green layer at the base, the neck of an opaque white color.Provenance: Collection particuliere dans le departement Eure-et-Loir, France. Condition: Minor wear, some nibbling, two extremely fine cracks at the body, almost invisible to the naked eye.Stopper: Glass stopper with metal collar, metal spoonWeight: 56.7 gDimensions: Height including stopper 70 mm. Diameter neck 17 mm and mouth 6 mm. This bottle resembles a well-known group of sandwiched pink glass bottles in the form of lotus flowers, probably made at the Court for distribution as gifts. They vary in form, from elongated ovoid as seen here, to shorter, spherical shapes, all finely carved with distinct details, suggesting the glass carvers were working from a general design idea, rather than a specific model. This is one of the most imposing of all the forms, with its elegant, elongated shape and the impressive use of the coloring of the layers of glass, leaving every petal in paler relief and the tips of the leaf around the base paler than the underside they overlap.Literature comparison:A related elongated oval bottle is illustrated by Moss, Graham, Tsang, A Treasury of Chinese Snuff Bottles, The Mary and George Bloch Collection, Vol. 5, Part 2, Glass, Hong Kong, 2008, pp. 324-6, no. 818.

A private collection in New York, USA, acquired from the above. A Christie's New York fact sheet, confirming the above provenance and dating, accompanies the present lot. Condition: Some repair and touchups as generally expected from Tang dynasty excavations. Losses, fissures, chips, and encrustations. Minor firing flaws, such as firing cracks, glaze flakes, glaze recesses, and dark spots. Overall, very good condition commensurate with age.Weight: 8.4 kg Dimensions: Height 53.5 cm Among the most universally admired examples of Chinese ceramic sculpture are the majestic horses made for the tombs of the aristocracy of the Tang Empire (AD 618-907). These horses, representing wealth and power, played a significant part in emphasizing the importance of the occupant of the tomb. They were not only used for war or transport, but employed in a variety of leisurely activities. Polo, for example, was a popular pursuit at the Tang court and was played by both men and women. It was specifically encouraged by two Tang emperors, Taizong and Xuanzong, as being excellent for developing certain useful skills. Expert's note: There is a groove running along the back of the neck, which was intended for attaching real horsehair to simulate the animal's mane, and there is a similar aperture for a tail. While such holes are seen on a number of Tang dynasty horses, the original horsehair of course could not survive more than 1,000 years of burial in a tomb. To give you a better impression of what a pottery horse such as the present lot would have looked like during the Tang dynasty, we added a braided horsehair tail to this piece.Auction result comparison:Type: Closely relatedAuction: Sotheby's New York, 24 June 2020, lot 857Price: USD 18,750 or approx.
