AN IMPERIAL GILT-DECORATED 'TROMPE-L'OEIL' PORCELAIN VAJRA, CHINA, 18TH CENTURYThe four-pronged porcelain vajra is masterfully glazed in imitation of worn gilt-bronze and splashes of green to simulate malachite encrustations. The prongs extend out of dragon mouths and are flanked by lotus petals. The central band shows a robin's egg glaze with perfect porcelain copies of lapis lazuli and coral cabochon inlays. Provenance: From a Swedish private collection. Condition: Expected old wear, three prongs with small old repairs, some firing irregularities and minor glaze flakes, tiny nicks and losses.Weight: 130.5 g Dimensions: Length 16.4 cm The vajra, a symbol of indestructibility and power, is one of the primary ritual symbols in Tibetan Buddhism. Derived from Sanskrit and translating to both thunderbolt and diamond, the vajra consists of two sets of prongs from which lotus petals emanate, flanking a central sphere. Often used in combination with a bell, which represents feminine wisdom, the vajra symbolizes the masculine attribute of skillful means or compassion.Vajras are considered to be imbued with magic. The famous Manhattan-based Chinese art dealer Robert H. Ellsworth once owned a related bronze vajra and shared an interesting story: It was given to Mr. Ellsworth by a dear friend who, having learned that Mr. Ellsworth was ill, sent the vajra from his personal shrine to Mr. Ellsworth with instructions to sleep with it under his pillow. Two weeks later, Mr. Ellsworth called his friend to report he had made a full recovery. From that point on, the vajra remained on Mr. Ellsworth's bedroom headboard, resting at the feet of a seated yogi.Trompe l'oeil porcelain is a highly unique genre of Imperial porcelain objects made during the Qing dynasty. It refers to porcelain made in decorated imitation of other objects. These objects varied from archer's rings to imitation wood basins, from lacquer boxes to auspicious symbols like this imitation-bronze vajra. During a rare private viewing of Qing trompe l'oeil porcelain at the National Palace Museum, Chih-En Chen delved into the museum archeology behind ten pieces-these include the comparisons given here and more-with the hopes of finding where these objects were found in situ and whether this was inside or outside the Forbidden City. He discovered that many of the pieces were in fact in the Forbidden city and that they were assembled in only five places: the Jingrengong, the Yangxindian, the Yongshougong, the Shouangong, and the Ningshougong. Chen managed to discover a link between all these locations, namely that they were all associated with buildings intended for the women of the court living at the Forbidden City. The only exception to this is Nigshougong, the Qianlong emperor's retirement palace.
