Item:285745267029VINTAGE 1940s CHINESE HAND-CARVED JADEITE BONSAI GRAPE TREE SCULPTURE ON BASE. Vintage Mid-Century circa 1940s-1950s Hand Carved Jadeite Grape Bonsai Tree Sculpture Mounted On Wood Base
This stunning bonsai grape tree comes up from a central dark green jade slab, supported by two upright green jade slabs, and all mounted on a carved wooden base.
The wire vines are adorned and tightly-wrapped with a copious amount of green thread.
The jadeite grapes, in varying hues of light to darker green, are supplemented with carved rock crystal and jadeite grape leaves.
These items were extremely scarce and highly sought-after in the States during and immediately following WWII.
Vintage Mid-Century examples are increasingly scarce and are notable for their use of Jadeite and limited green-palate use of the scarce stones.
Surprisingly, these items are still made and now-readily exported today, but the color palate is wider and use quarts instead of Jadeite for the grapes and leaves.
16 inch tall x 14 inches wide x 6 inches deep
