CONG-SHAPED BEAD
Jade. Late Neolithic, Liangzhu culture, c.3300-2200 BC
??????? - ????, ???33??-?22??
? 7,4 ??
This bead is shaped like a miniature cong, yet despite its small size, it retains all the features seen on larger objects of this type, such as the one illustrated in the previous lot. The bead is shaped like a cylinder and the squared registers jetting out from it are decorated with the two types of Liangzhu jade masks. Zoomorphic masks are used to fill the central register, while the projections at the top and bottom are engraved with the anthropomorphic type of mask. The masks are further enriched by minutely incised spirals and striations used to fill in details such as the short bar standing for the mouth, the eyes of the zoomorphic image and the band on top of the human mask. The bead was used as a component of a necklace or other ornament worn by the members of the Liangzhu elite: similar beads have been excavated from a number of Liangzhu Culture sites, like the one illustrated in Huang Xuanpei, Gems of the Liangzhu Culture, Hong Kong 1992, no. 69.
The jade, which has a deep brown, reddish colour due to the extremely high content of iron in the stone, is also crossed by many tiny white veins resulting from natural processes of alteration.
This jade is published in Filippo Salviati, Mysterious Jades of Ancient China,
Edition Zacke 2014.
HEIGHT 7,4 CM, PERIMETER 2,0 x 2,0 CM
From an Austrian private collection
Starting price: 900
