Jade Brush Washer in the
Shape of a Lotus Leaf
Sung Dynasty
(A.D. 960-1279)
Height 9.4cm
Length 15.1cm
Width 5.8cm
This brush washer is
designed in the shape of
a withered lotus leaf,
with the rim being curled
slightly inwards. As well
as its realistic shape, the
resemblance to a withered
leaf is further reinforced
by its coloration.
