A well-carved white jade peach-form box and cover, 18th century
Lot 1536. A well-carved white jade peach-form box and cover, 18th century; 3 5/8 in. (9.2 cm.) across. Estimate USD 60,000 - USD 80,000. Price realised USD 242,500. © Christie's Images Ltd 2011.
Well carved as a peach borne on a gnarled, leafy branch, carved as if the branch continues from the sides of the box onto the cover where a bat flitters amidst the leaves, the stone of pale greenish-white tone with fine polish.
