AN AGATE CARVED CHRYSANTHEMUM WASHER <br/>QING DYNASTY

This washer, carved from agate, has a wide mouth, rounded sides, a shallow, tapering body, and a ring foot. The inside of the bowl has been left plain. The outside is decorated in relief carving with a neatly arranged leaf vein pattern. On opposite sides of the rim, two hanging chrysanthemum rings serve as handles. The carving demonstrates a sublime combination of complexity and simplicity; with its lightweight, streamlined appearance, the pot exudes a sense of freshness and vivacity.
