Ivory brush holder with pine shade

[Ivory Carved Pine Shade Cosette Penholder]

Ivory Carved Pine Shade Cosette Penholder, in the early Qing Dynasty, was 14.4 cm high, 12.7 cm in diameter and 12.7 cm in bottom diameter
The penholder is straight and has a jade wall bottom. The figure scene is carved between the edge of the mouth and the decorative band of the bottom, with the background of lakes and mountains and evergreen pines and cypresses. Among them, the characters can be divided into three groups: one group is the old man walking slowly with a stick, and the other two children are accompanied by a piano and a backpack; One group is an old man standing on the bridge, looking back and stopping, pointing in front of him as if he was leading the way, and a little boy listening and watching from the bank; Another group is sitting at the desk and reading for the two elders. It seems that they have a feeling and look far away with the children who are cooking tea and carrying pots. The author uses the circular barrel to lay out the plot and set the scene step by step. Each turn is a different picture, and there is an internal connection between them, which is very ingenious
This pen holder is mainly made of high relief, combined with shallow relief, engraving and other techniques, and is exquisite and skillful. Its production is meticulous, even the ground is polished smooth and round, showing the typical style of ivory carving in this period
