Origin: China,<p>Age/Period: ca.18th century, Qianlong period, Qing Dynasty,<p>Dimensions: 2" dia., 7/8" h.;<p>A splendid, green nephrite jade scholar's seal paste box, c.18th century, Qianlong period. The jade is a translucent, light green with amber-green flushes. It is masterfully carved. The slightly domed top is very thinly carved. The body is deep and also very thinly carved. The mouth rim has a raised lip to facilitate holding the top. The body rests on a short, flat foot. You can see how well carved and translucent this is by examining enlargements #5 and #6. Items such as this would grace the desks of scholars and hold vermillion seal paste. Vermillion remnants are still evident in the recesses of this box.<p>Condition Consensus: Very Fine condition, without any injury or repair.
