A CARVED YELLOW AGATE PHOENIX-FORM WATER POT
QING DYNASTY (1644-1911)
The vessel is in the form of a recumbent phoenix, grasping in its beak a lingzhi branch, the backward-turned neck and head of the bird are well carved in high relief, the closed wings detailed with feathers and project from the body above the curled tail feathers and feet carved in low relief. The back is centred by a small circular aperture, opening to a well-hollowed receptacle.
3 1/2 in. (9 cm.) wide
