A GILT BRONZE ‘PEACH AND BAT’ WASHER, QIANLONGChina, 1736-1795. Cast in the form of a peach growing from a gnarled branch, a bat with wings spread out above the rim, a ribbon with two small coins above. The exterior of the washer is finely incised with a Shou character to the base and further characters to the side, the bottom section of the peach neatly stippled.Provenance: French private collection. Condition: Very good condition with minor wear, a small dent to the underside, minuscule nibbling to the edges.Weight: 53.2 gDimensions: Width 8 cmThe splendor of the Qianlong court is captured in this ingeniously crafted washer in the form of an auspicious peach, the fruit of immortality in Daoism. While the handle is subtly cast as a gnarled branch, the base shows a shou medallion which - using the rather complex repousse technique - also appears on the inside. Together with the bat the rebus ‘May you have both blessings and longevity’ (fushou shuangquan) is formed. This auspicious motif, combined with the high level of craftsmanship, suggests this washer may have been created for a high ranked official or even a member of the imperial family, possibly on the occasion of a birthday.The peach was one of the Qing Emperor's favorite motifs and it was thus used as a form for washers and boxes made of various materials. Boxes also adorned with a shou character and bats include a coral example, attributed to the Yongzheng period, in the Qing court collection and still in Beijing, included in the exhibition ‘China, The Three Emperors, Royal Academy of Arts, London, 2005, cat. no. 294.
