GREAT CHINESE GREY WHITE JADE MYTHICAL DRAGON BEAST FIGURE MING QING DYNASTY. JOANIES VOTED #1 NO RESERVE ESTATE AUCTIONS TEN YEARS AND RUNNING! Hi, thank you for having a look at my auctions. This week we are very excited to be featuring session two of this important estate collection. Wadds was an avid Asian arts collector with a keen interest in the area of stone and scholarly objects. I do wish everyone the very best of luck winning the auctions! This is a really great carving and one of my personal favorites from the collection. The estate was told this carving would date to the Ming dynasty period. The figure is carved of a unique and beautiful grey-white jade. The carver has incorporated much of the jades original orange skin into the carving, which I personally love to see giving such carvings far more visual appeal. The figure is fully carved throughout including the base side. The figure does not stand on its own and likely originally had a stand to hold it upright. With a small piece of putty the figure can easily be displayed upright if desired. The carving could use a light cleaning and is otherwise in fine condition with no damage as seen. The figure is a great piece to display measuring 3 inches long, by 3/4s of an inch wide, and 2 1/2 inches tall. A truly great and unique example that I believe is rarely found. BEST OF LUCK WITH THE AUCTIONS! All Canadian Residents will be charged HST Based on Address. We make great effort to honestly and accurately describe each item listed.
