[Ivory carved pine tree paperweight]

Ivory carved pine tree paperweight, clear, 13 cm long, 5.8 cm wide. The old collection of the Qing Palace
The paperweight flat body is slightly tiled and carved into a loose and dry shape. The loose and dry skin scales are scattered by the shallow relief and carving techniques, with rhythmic beauty. The branches are twisted and knotted, and the pine needles are like clouds. The cracks are shallow on the front and back, transparent on the side, and ingeniously arranged. There is a circular pool on the upper part of the back, which can be inverted to make it water. Particularly exquisite is that there is a machine cover at the pine needle at the lower part of the front, and the pulling machine cover can lift an elliptical cover, which can be used to cover the shallow relief of the cloud dragon pattern in the elliptical pool, and can also be used as a water cheng. The back of the cover is carved into an inkstone style, and there are faint ink marks emerging
This pine paperweight is a very rare stationery tool with excellent carving and grinding.
