Fine Carved Bamboo Water Coupe, Qing Dynasty



This is a very elegant Chinese scholar's items of a carved bamboo water coupe. The small water container was carved from a section of bamboo root into a oval shape with reticulated Lingzhi branches surrounding the coupe as two flying bats hovering on the other side. The beautiful water coupe exemplifies the true Chinese literati's taste with its sparse layout and simple form made from a humble material. The surface is covered with some original dark lacquer now mostly worn off and covered with mellow patina. The lovely bamboo water coupe is in excellent condition with only minor surface wear.
Size: width: 9cm; depth: 7.5cm; height: 4.6cm
