拍品資料及來源

This bottle is in the classic Suzhou style and probably dates from the Qianlong period or a little later. The massive convoluted rock-formation owes part of its wonderfully sculptural, natural form to the fact that it was dictated by an area of whiter colouring in the mottled greyish nephrite. As the great rock meets the ground, another peak rises to one side and the colour changes to the rich russet-brown of the natural skin of the pebble.
