A person of influence, he is also known to have played a crucial role in helping to avoid a war between Argentina and Chile in 1902 by managing the British mediation in the border dispute. Throughout the years, he maintained a close friendship with Argentina Presidents Julio A. Roca (1843-1914) and Carlos Pellegrini (1846-1906). Joseph Vallot (1854-1925) was a French astronomer, geographer, naturalist, alpinist and patron of arts and sciences, who studied botanic and geology in Paris and later became the President of the Club Alpin Français.

A RARE JADE 'PHOENIX' WINE POT AND COVER China, Qing Dynasty, 18th or 19th century Carved in a desirable stone. Shaped as a phoenix standing on its feet, the spout carved as the head, the neck with a loose ring, the handle carved as the tail whose feathers described a circle and continue between the feet up to the front part, the sides carved with the wings, the lid topped by a finial shaped as a phoenix, the inner part masterfully hollowed. Sweet and delicate polish. H: 18 cm - L: 17 cm - w: 4,5 cm Weight: 1050 grams Provenance: > Private collection; > Carlos Alfredo Tornquist Altgelt (1885-1953), O. Ramos Oromi y Cia, Buenos Aires, Argentina, July 27th, 28th and 29th 1936, lot 284; > Joseph Vallot (1854-1925), Drouot, Paris, Messrs Lair-Dubreuil and Portier, November 16th, 17th, 18th 1925. Notes: 1. The use of birds' heads to provide the shape of the spout on pouring vessels has a long history in China. Not only do they appear on bronze vessels, they can also be seen among ceramic wares. Chickens' heads, for example, provide the spout form on a number of Jin dynasty (AD 265-420) ewers with both celadon and black glazes (see The Complete Collection of Treasures of the Palace Museum 31 Porcelain of the Jin and Tang Dynasties, Commercial Press, Hong Kong, 1996, p. 42, no. 37 and p. 52, no. 47, respectively). The theme of the phoenix to provide inspiration for shape and decoration can be seen in various media in succeeding dynasties, but interestingly the current jade teapot is especially close in concept to the famous Yuan dynasty (1279-1368) blue and white porcelain ewer excavated from the Yuan capital Dadu in 1970. A jade teapot or wine pot with phoenix-head spout, now in the collection of the National Palace Museum, Taipei, was loaned by the Chinese Government to the 1935-6 International Exhibition of Chinese Art at the Royal Academy, London (see International Exhibition of Chinese Art, Royal Academy of Arts, London, 1935, p. 255, no. 2828) 2. Compare with an imperial phoenix white jade and cover wine pot offered at Christie's London, 2008/11/04, lot 9. 3. Carlos Alfredo Tornquist Altgelt (1885-1953) was the President of the banking house of Ernesto Tornquist Co., Ltd., and a member of a prominent Argentinian family. A person of influence, he is also known to have played a crucial role in helping to avoid a war between Argentina and Chile in 1902 by managing the British mediation in the border dispute. Throughout the years, he maintained a close friendship with Argentina Presidents Julio A. Roca (1843-1914) and Carlos Pellegrini (1846-1906). 4. Joseph Vallot (1854-1925) was a French astronomer, geographer, naturalist, alpinist and patron of arts and sciences, who studied botanic and geology in Paris and later became the President of the Club Alpin Français.

H: 6,5 cm Weight: 42,4 grams Provenance: Rennes Encheres, 2013/04/22, lot 99. Notes: This subject, Zhong Weng 仲翁 also known as Wen Wong 文翁 or Dang 黨, is rare either at public auction or in museum collections. It is that of an old man / mortuary figure quoted in ancient tales.

A MOTTLED JADE CARVING OF A CHINESE CABBAGE China, Likely Ming Dynasty Naturalistically carved in a mottled stone with dark inclusions. Affixed to a wooden stand. H (with stand): 15 cm Gross weight: 398 grams Note: The cabbage (baicai 白菜 or qingcai 清菜) is a symbol for wealth because it has the same pronunciation as the word money or wealth (cai 财). 白菜斑纹玉雕 中国，可能是明朝
A WHITE JADE GROUP OF TWO CATS WITH A BUTTERFLY 玉耄耋 China, Qing Dynasty Carved out of an almost flawless stone with a recumbent larger cat and another one climbing up its back, a butterfly next to its face. H: 3,8 cm - L: 5,6 cm - width: 2,5 cm - Weight: 67,7 grams Note: This peculiar subject became popular during the late Ming Dynasty when the art market developed. The reasons for this success is that both cats and butterflies convey special meanings. Indeed, the term cat (猫 māo) is pronounced phonetically similar to the character Mao (耄 mào), which means octogenarian while the second syllable of the word for butterfly (蝴蝶 hú dié) is a homophone for septuagenarian, Die (耋 dié). The combination of Mao and Die expresses the desire that someone could reach an old age.
