    8. Turquoise Matrix Miniature Scholar’s Rock

    Qing dynasty, 18th - 19th century
    Height: 12.0cm

    Miniature carving in turquoise matrix with a flat base and an abundance of irregularly shaped holes, to imitate a scholar’s rock, for placing on a table. The material has been carefully chosen to contrast the fine web of black lines, the embedded remnant of the ‘host’ rock, with the brilliant colour of the turquoise.
