PROVENANCE
Alex Gurevich, Montréal, acquis principalement à Hong Kong dans les années 1960
Par filiation à la collection privée actuelle, Ontario
Carved as a large and a smaller peach with two bats at its side, the whole with sinuous branches throughout. The stone of an even celadon tone with some minor inclusions.
Initially based in Harbin in northeastern China during the first half of the 20th Century, the Gurevich family moved to Canada during the 1950s and opened the Gurie Gallery, a staple of Montreal’s trendy Sherbrooke street. The Gurie Gallery was one of the first to focus on Chinese ceramics, decorative arts and paintings, and was extremely popular to collectors in Montreal, Toronto and New York. The son, Alex Gurevich (1929-1990), took over the store during the 1960s and continued to source objects through frequent visits to Hong Kong.
