A CHINESE HUANGHUALI WOOD BRUSH POT

拍品描述

Weighing 3100 grams, this substantial cylindrical brush pot has dimensions of 21 cm in length, 19 cm in width and 22 cm in height. Crafted from premium huanghuali timber with a rich, lustrous dark patina, its exterior is adorned with immersive deep-relief carvings depicting layered rocky cliffs, gnarled pine foliage, rippling waterways and diminutive scholarly figures sheltered within waterside pavilions. Irregular naturalistic contours shape the uneven rim, amplifying the organic mountainous aesthetic. Precise layered sculpting reproduces fine rock textures, wave crests and delicate facial details. A standout piece of literati furnishings, this intricately carved vessel is a coveted addition to high-grade collections of antique Chinese hardwood stationery wares.
