Footnotes
十八/十九世紀 白玉竹節臂擱
Compare with a very similar pale green jade wristrest, Qing dynasty, with a design of bamboo and dragonfly, in the Qing Court Collection, illustrated in the Compendium of Collections in the Palace Museum: Jade, 9, Beijing, 2011, p.55, no.38. See also a similar pale green jade 'bamboo' wrist rest, circa 1800, which was sold at Sotheby's London, 4 November 2009, lot 9.
玉質，白色。長方形臂擱，左右兩側內捲，作竹片剖成一截的形狀。正面琢竹，一蜻蜓佇立葉上，圖像極富畫意。參考清宮舊藏一件意趣相近的青玉竹節臂擱，見《故宮博物院藏品大系玉器編-9 清》，北京，2011年，頁55，圖版38。倫敦蘇富比2009年11月4日售出一件十九世紀青玉竹節臂擱可資比較，拍品編號9。
