Piece Description
Exquisite Chinese Imperial Dragon Boat Model (Highly Detailed Carving) Provenance: South Korean Ambassador to Spain Description: Imperial Grandeur: A Piece of Chinese Cultural History We are delighted to offer this magnificent and exceptionally rare model of a tiered Chinese Imperial Dragon Boat or Pleasure Barge carved from bone. This piece has superb provenance, having been acquired in the 1960s in Beijing by the South Korean Ambassador to Spain and has remained in private hands since. Just look at the intricacy and details to the carving, an amazing feat of craftsmanship and technical ability. So detailed and intricate. Key Features and Detailing: • Intricate Construction: The multi-story superstructure features intricate architectural detailing, including fine lattice work, pagoda roofs, and balconies. • Figures: The decks are populated with dozens of finely rendered figures, including court attendants and a central enthroned figure (likely an Emperor or high-ranking official). • Dragon Head: The bow is dominated by a vividly painted dragon head in blue and gold. • Scale and Craftsmanship: The entire piece is a triumph of detailed, traditional Chinese carving, reflecting its original high value. Dimensions Width: 140 cm (55.1 in) Height: 55 cm (21.7 in) ED
