Modeling Chinese New Year shuixian pen, resting on four small short hollow feet supporting the jardinières of pale green jade carved in rectangular form and indented corner rising gently with flared walls to a flat everted rim, on the centre each with three bulbs of white hard-stone arising from rock crystal water, issuing long curved translucent green leaves and stems supporting numerous white narcissus flowers, centered with yellow stone and seed pearls. In very good conditions but as typical of this type of works of art there are some minor losses to the hard-stones and very minor nibbles on the extremities.
