A RARE CHINESE IMPERIAL SPINACH-GREEN JADE CIRCULAR 'DRAGON' BOX AND COVER 18TH CENTURY The domed cover decorated with a central medallion enclosing a coiled confronting dragon, the mythical creature writhes amidst leaves as it pursues a sacred pearl, the beast finely detailed with bulging eyes and scaly skin, with fine fluted chrysanthemum petals to the sides of the box and cover, carved to the interior and base with large stylised chrysanthemum blooms, the flowerheads worked with rows of many narrow petals radiating from the centre, the thin translucent jade of a dark green tone with some black specks, 12.1cm dia. (2) Provenance: the Lawrence Collection of jades and hardstone carvings, purchased from Spink & Son prior to 1959. Whilst the central decoration of the dragon in pursuit of a jewel is typically Chinese, the form of this box, with its thin wall and fine flower petals, is likely to have been influenced by Mughal jades. Cf. F Gu, The Complete Collection of Jades Unearthed in China, vol.1, p.235 for a comparable box and cover with floral decoration to the cover which was excavated from Zhang Zhidong's residence at Nanpi, Hebei, and is now in the collection of the Hebei Provincial Centre for Cultural Heritage Preservation.十八世紀 御製碧玉雕趕珠龍紋菊瓣盒來源：勞倫斯珍藏玉石，1959年前購於Spink & Son。

A PAIR OF FINE CHINESE WHITE JADE CIRCULAR INCENSE BOXES AND COVERS 18TH CENTURY With shallow bodies and low domed covers, each cover finely carved and pierced with a medallion enclosing peony blooms and buds amidst leafy branches, the sides similarly worked with many peonies set amongst trailing foliage, the slightly convex bases left undecorated, the stone of a creamy white tone with some cloudy striations, 10.2cm dia. (4) Provenance: the Lawrence Collection of jades and hardstone carvings, purchased from Spink & Son prior to 1959. Boxes of this type were used as incense containers. The fragrance would be released slowly through the pierced holes. Such pieces were very popular in wealthy and Imperial households, particularly in ladies' inner chambers. The peony is indigenous to China. Among the many different species of peony, the Chinese are particularly fond of the Paeonia suffruticosa, Chinese: mudan, also known as fugihua, which is regarded as the flower of riches and honour. In ancient times, the city of Luoyang was renowned for its peony festivals, and many famous poems have been written about the flower. The most memorable one is probably by the Tang dynasty poet Bai Juyi (772-846) who himself was a resident of Luoyang. He wrote: "I'm saddened by the peonies before the steps, so red,As evening came I found that only two remained.Once morning's winds have blown, they surely won't survive,At night I gaze by lamplight, to cherish the fading red." In the early 20th century, the peony was crowned as China's 'national flower', and there are frequent peony exhibitions and shows. Cf. The Complete Collection of Treasures of the Palace Museum, Jadeware (III), p.53, no.42 for a related incense burner with comparable decoration. 十八世紀 白玉鏤雕牡丹紋蓋盒 一對來源：勞倫斯珍藏玉石，1959年前購於Spink & Son。

A RARE AND LARGE CHINESE SPINACH-GREEN JADE FIGURE OF A LUOHAN 18TH CENTURY Depicted seated in dhyanasana holding a tablet in his left hand and a brush in his right, he wears long layered robes which fall in folds around his bare left foot, his well-defined face detailed with downcast eyes and wrinkles to his forehead, with finely incised hairs to his long beard and moustache, the deep green stone with brown and dark inclusions, 23.5cm. Provenance: the Lawrence Collection of jades and hardstone carvings, purchased from Spink & Son prior to 1959. Several of the Eighteen Luohans are associated with books or Buddhist scriptures, including Nandimitra and Panthaka. The figure depicted here is likely to be Angida, who is often portrayed as a learned old monk who could read scriptures written in Sanskrit. Jade sculptures of this kind have previously been dated to the Ming dynasty, but the style of the representation and carving somehow fits more comfortably with that of the early Qing dynasty. Cf. Catalogue of the International Exhibition of Chinese Art, 1935-6, no.2860 for a similar figure lent to the exhibition by Mr and Mrs Edward Sonnenschein; see also G Wills, Jade of the East, p.104, nos.63-64 and N Zhou, Ancient Jades in Man, Immortal and Buddha, p.309, nos.360-361 for further related examples; see also Asian Art I, 17th November 2010, lot 337 for a comparable spinach-green jade figure of Buddha of the same size previously sold in these rooms.十八世紀 碧玉雕羅漢來源：勞倫斯珍藏玉石，1959年前購於Spink & Son。
