JOANIES SCHOLARLY JADE STONE TREASURES ESTATE sale

JOANIES VOTED #1 ESTATE sales TEN YEARS AND RUNNING!

Hi, thank you for having a look at my sales. This week we are very excited to be featuring session two of this important estate collection. This sale features superb jades, stone carving, and jewelry from the estate of the late Jean Casselman-Wadds. Ms. Wadds was an important Canadian political figure that served as High Commissioner to the United Kingdom from 1979-1983. Ms. Wadds was an avid Asian arts collector with a keen interest in the area of stone and scholarly objects. I am told Ms. Wadds acquired most of the collection when she traveled on many trips to China and Hong Kong during the 1950-70’s period, along with numerous pieces purchased at Sotheby’s over the years as well.

Up for sale is an exceptional Chinese white jade figural desk, mantle, or table clock. This clock is a truly fine and very rarely found example. The clock itself would date to the 1900-1920s period made by the fine French high-end accessories firm “Gubelin” as marked on the clock face. The clock is constructed of solid bronze with black and gold gilt work. The clock presently winds and runs nicely.

The clock is mounted with a superb white jade figure, something that Gubelin was well known for incorporating into their pieces in the earlier 1900s period. I am told this figure is a rarely found 18th century Qianlong period example, which I personally believe to be a correct dating. However, to be perfectly safe for the sale I am going to sell the jade figure as 18th to 19th century period. The figure has a beautiful and unique design and is fully carved throughout. The figure is holding twin fish as seen.

The clock itself shows some wear to the gilding but I believe it was originally made like this. I have closely inspected the white jade figure itself which is in very fine condition with no damage or repairs. I have also included a picture with some other light celadon and green jades also being offered in the sale to show the beautiful natural white jade color of the figure. The clock measures in total 10 5/8 inches long, by 3 1/4 inches wide at the base, and stands 8 1/4 inches tall. The jade figure itself measures 6 1/4 inches tall, by 3 3/4 inches wide, and is approximately 1 1/4 of an inch thick. I really have no idea what such a piece would presently be worth. I do know it will likely be some time before you see another example with such a fine jade figure incorporated, and also being offered without reserve! The clock would also make an impressive and unique gift for someone you wanted to please or greatly impress. I know if someone gifted me this clock they would definitely go up on my friend list! Lol
