拍品专文

Box-form stools, such as the present example, are extremely rare. The form is distinguished by the simple elegance and refined geometry of its design. A related hongmu example with ‘giant’s arm’s’ braces was in the Charlotte Horstmann collection, illustrated in Robert Ellsworth, Chinese Furniture: Hardwood Examples of the Early Ch’ing Dynasties, New York, 1971, p. 197, pl. 107.
