A 'MAGNOLIA' ZITAN LIBATION CUP, CHINA, 17TH CENTURY
The finely carved cup of flattened conical form beneath an irregularly lobed mouth rim, raised upon an openwork foot that forms a gnarled branch, from which issue magnolia buds and a magnolia blossom. Note the elegant bordeaux-red color and the distinct 'crab's claw' marks, both noted hallmarks of Zitan wood.
Provenance: From a German private collection.
Condition: Good condition with old wear, few small cracks to the openwork, a minuscule chip to the rim, minor nicks here and there. Several old lacquer coatings, partially worn off and renewed over centuries. Fine, naturally grown patina overall.
