Description


A CARVED RED OVERLAY SNOWFLAKE GLASS ‘DRAGON’ BRUSH HANDLE, QING DYNASTY
China, 1644-1912. The red overlay neatly carved against the snowflake ground to depict two scaly dragons writhing along the handle among lingzhi-shaped swirling clouds, the cap carved with crashing waves. Note the high relief and the remarkably fine incision work.


Expert’s note
: Due to the fine incision work and the high relief, this brush handle would fit rather comfortably in the painter’s or calligrapher’s hand. This is probably the reason why brushes made from overlay glass were quite popular at the time. On the other hand, only one small mishap would be enough for the brush to fall down, break and be irreparably damaged. This fact explains why these overlay glass brushes are so rare.


Provenance:
From the estate of Sear Hang Hwie Pao (1937-2009). Pao was one of Canada’s leading dealers of Chinese porcelain and works of art. His antique store, Pao & Moltke Ltd., owned together with his wife Mrs. von Moltke, who descended from a German and Danish noble family, was a fixture in Toronto’s trendy Yorkville area from the 1980s to early 2000s.

Condition:
Excellent condition with minor wear, possibly microscopic nicks, and expected manufacturing irregularities such as air bubbles and other minor flaws inside the glass.

Weight: 128.6 g
Dimensions: Height 18 cm

With a silk storage box and cover. (2)

中國,1644-1912年。雪花地套寶石紅浮雕如意祥雲雲中的飛龍,底部波濤起伏。雕刻精細。


專家注釋:
精美的筆杆非常適合文人使用。這可能就是當時玻璃筆杆受歡迎的原因。另一方面,這筆杆極易損壞。這也解釋了為什麼這些套料玻璃筆杆如此罕見的原因。
