Detail: Important Chinese Jade Carvings from the LJZ Collection comprises forty-three outstanding works ranging from the Han dynasty (206 BC-AD 220) to the Qing dynasty (1644-1911). The sale is led by a superb and finely carved archaistic white jade rhyton from the Qianlong period (1736-1795), which is estimated at $800,000-1,200,000. Other highlights include an exceptional yellow jade figure of a recumbent hound dated to the 12th-15th century and a very fine white jade figure of a recumbent horse from the 18th century. The collection is remarkable in its extensive publication and exhibition history. They also boast illustrious provenance, having passed through the hands of renowned connoisseurs and dealers such as Chung Wah Pui (The Hei-Chi Collection), Professor Cheng Te-k’un (The Mu-Fei Collection), Reginald Howard Reed Palmer, James and Marilynn Alsdorf, Robert H. Ellsworth, Bluett & Sons, and Eskenazi.
