A RARE PALE GREEN JADE OVAL CUPTang Dynasty Of oval shape, the interior well hollowed and the exterior rounded, the stone of pale celadon tone with russet flecks, fitted box. 9cm (3 1/2in) long. (2).Footnotes唐 青白玉橢圓形杯 The three small apertures on one side of the cup suggest there was possibly a gold handle attached on the side. See two similar cups in the Beijing Palace Museum: a Tang dynasty pale green jade ear cup, illustrated in Compendium of Collections in the Palace Museum: Jade, Beijing, 2011, vol.6, p.23, no.2; and a Tang dynasty pale green jade 'figure' cup, ibid., p.26, no.4. 杯圓唇，呈半卵形，打磨圓潤光滑，線條如一氣呵成。 杯口沿一側遺三孔，推測單邊或原有鑲金耳鋬。 北京故宮藏一件唐代青玉單耳洗，實則為酒杯，其打磨及線條與本件相類，見《故宮博物館藏品大系·玉器編》，北京，2011年，卷5，頁23，編號2。北京故宮藏另一件唐代青玉人物紋杯亦可參考之，見前書，頁26，編號4。
