A CHINESE WHITE JADE RED CLIFF TABLE SCREEN

拍品描述

Set within a polished dark hardwood stand fitted with elegantly scrolled side brackets, curved apron detailing and a hollowed rectangular cutout, this table screen holds a rectangular plaque of creamy white jade. The jade bears subtle russet natural inclusions and shallow relief carvings that depict the scenic Night Voyage at Red Cliff landscape with misty clouds, rugged cliffs and boating figures. Measuring 14 x 12.5 x 27 cm overall and weighing 802 grams, the piece displays refined lapidary carving alongside meticulous woodwork. Merging classical literary iconography and fine scholar-desk craftsmanship, it forms an elegant centrepiece for distinguished collections of decorative Chinese jade furnishings.
