A Chinese Bamboo Wrist Rest, Celestial Figures, 19C.
A CHINESE ENGRAVED BAMBOO WRIST REST, 19TH CENTURY.

The bamboo of a rich mid brown colour expertly engraved with a celestial scene. The rest comes from an old collection, some of which was shown in London in 1999 by the eminent dealer Jan van Beers.

A very similar rest, almost certainly by the same hand, is published in the exhibition catalogue “Bamboo & Wood Carvings of China and the East” Spink & Son Ltd., London, 1979.

10.1/2 inches (26.6 cm) long. Fine undamaged condition with just some very light signs of use.

I am based in the United Kingdom so charges made to credit cards are in GBP ( British Pounds ) and your credit card issuer automatically converts the charge to the currency of your country. Payment may also be made by direct bank transfer in GBP. I am sorry but I cannot accept a cash transfer payment by Western Union as I don’t have an office nearby.
