Jade Brush Washer, Large Hetian Nephrite, Carved Celadon, Qing Dynasty 1800s

A large and very beautiful Hetian nephrite jade carved brush washer dating from the Qing Dynasty, 1800s. Celadon color measuring approximately 6 inches long and 4 inches wide. Weighs 14.2 ounces. The lemon in the photo gives an idea of the large size of this washer. Items such as this made of fine jade were exquisite sculptures for the desks of revered scholars for whom every tool was considered an art object.
