Lot Essay
The present ladle stands as one of the largest extant examples of white jade ladles from this period. Its exceptional quality, marked by a even white tone and a rich, unctuous surface, further sets it apart as one of the finest white jade carvings of the Han dynasty. The meticulously executed dragon head exemplifies intricate craftsmanship, displaying a dynamic sense of movement. A Eastern Han white jade ladle was found in the Luoyang region, sharing a similar proportion and degree of curvature as the present ladle, but measuring only 8cm. long.
