X] PAIR OR SUITE OF TWO (2) MOTHER-OF-PEARL INLAID INDIGENOUS WOOD PANELS
South China or Vietnam, circa 1900
Quadrangular and vertical. Made of native wood with floral decoration rendered by mother-of-pearl inlay. They
both contain four dream stones or Dali marbles. They all differ: octagonal,
circulars, squares and spandrels. All the stones are inscribed with colophon and appear to be
signed. Top hooks for suspension (small gaps, a few cracks).
Dimensions (approximate): 119.5 x 26.5 cm
Note: All the poetry of these marbles lies in the fact that when you look at their inclusions and their
veining, the amateur discerned shapes and/or landscapes.
