Provenance:|The Joanna Lau Sullivan Trust|Hollowed carvings of fruit, such as the Three Auspicious Fruit (peach, pomegranate, and finger citron) were popular objects for the scholar's desk in the late Ming and early Qing periods, providing both adornment and utility as an essential tool for the literatus. |The present carving, formed as a peach, represents the wish for longevity, and the addition of the bat represents the wish for happiness and prosperity. Compare another carving made from similar green stone with russet inclusions, dated to the Ming dynasty but formed as the finger citron, another of the Three Auspicious Fruits, illustrated in Later Chinese Jades: Ming Dynasty to Early Twentieth Century, San Francisco, 2007, no. 334.
