Rare Vintage Fuzhou Zou Zhen Ji White Buffalo Horn Comb Set –Carved Relief Hand-Painted Bird with Matching Embroidered Pouch & Painted Gold Lacquer Box

 

An exceptional, investment-grade heirloom set showcasing the pinnacle of mid-century Chinese folk artistry. This curated collection brings together a rare masterpiece from the globally renowned Zou Zhen Ji workshop alongside a beautifully paired, period-correct Fuzhou lacquer presentation box.

1. The Comb (Zou Zhen Ji Masterwork):

Crafted from highly coveted, premium white water buffalo horn, this comb possesses an exquisite jade-like translucency that glows when held to the light. The spine features a stunning, masterfully executed 3D high-relief carving of a bird, physically sculpted out of the horn base. The bird and background are vibrantly detailed with authentic hand-painted lacquer art, depicting a blooming plum blossom branch. The reverse side features the crisp, authentic maker's stamp reading right-to-left: 福州鄒振記製造 ("Manufactured by Zou Zhen Ji, Fuzhou").

2. The Original Protective Pouch:

Crucial for provenance, the comb rests inside its original, hand-stitched linen/hemp protective sleeve. The back features beautiful, vibrant folk embroidery of a matching plum blossom branch that perfectly echoes the artwork painted on the comb itself.

3. The Presentation Box (Fuzhou Lacquerware):

Rounding out this complete collection is an authentic, rectangular black lacquer box featuring a traditional Chinese gold-painted (Miaojin) landscape of pagodas and pine trees. The box is the perfect size and depth to preserve the comb and pouch, creating a visually stunning, culturally unified presentation set.
