SPECIAL SESSION
IMPORTANT COLLECTION OF HONG KONG TOMMY LAM - ASIAN ART
1 - 100
Mr. Tommy Lam's collection is one of the most important private collections of Asian art, highlighting his unique and top quality jade pieces. For the first time, after a long career as a collector, he presents an exclusive sample of his large collection.
Mr. Tommy Lam is a successful businessman, gemologist and philanthropist specializing in jewelry and a member of the Hong Kong Jade Chamber of Commerce (香港玉器商會). His appreciation for Chinese culture has prompted him to participate since the 1980s continuously in charitable activities, highlighting donations in education with the development of schools and teaching materials. Likewise, his restless mind has led him to achieve multiple achievements and trophies in various hobbies, including sport fishing, traditional garden design, golf and as a sports racing driver.
Another of his interests is the history of China, which is why he took up collecting Chinese art in the 1980s, leading him to obtain various items of Chinese culture ranging from the Neolithic period to the end of the Qing dynasty. Over the course of these 40 years he has studied and inspired more people to share this interest as a national pride.

White jade snuff bottle, Ming dynasty, 17th Century
Hetian white jade snuff bottle, carved and embossed on the outside. The shape is oval, slightly flattened, stands on an oval foot, without inscriptions, and under a circular neck with a small hole in the center. The reliefs show a traditional rocky landscape with pine trees and bamboo. In very good condition for the antique, without a lid.
Pine (松樹) is a type of tree widely represented in the arts for its significance of longevity and hardiness. It is a tree that can thrive in rough places and lives for many years. Bamboo (竹) also has a broad cultural significance, considered for its tough bark, conviviality and uprightness, as well as an example of perseverance.
