$325.00 

This is an interesting pair of provincial Ming dynasty blue and white dishes each with a design of two dragons chasing a tamba (the sacred pearl). We date them to the middle to late Ming dynasty, circa 1500-1600. The designs are done in a dark cobalt blue under the clear glaze. It is fascinating how different each of the dragons are loosely drawn thereby giving them that wonderful folk ceramics flair. The dishes measure 6” in diameter and are Ύ” deep. There is considerable kiln grit on the botto ...click for details

This is a lovely dish it in it’s stark simplicity. The dish has a fluted edge that then descend into low relief raised lines that slowly disappear as they approach the center of the dish. The dish measures 7 ½” diameter by 1 1/8’ deep. The entire piece has a superb white glaze both top and bottom. Three cobalt blue lines under the glaze surround the slightly elevated foot rim.

This is a two piece bronze incense burner in the shape of a deer looking back at an elderly sage who is riding in his back. The sage is possibly the figure of Lao Tzu – although Lao Tzu is usually shown riding on the back of an ox or bullock. The sage rider forms the cover of the incense burner and is detachable – it is held to the deer by a short protuberance on the bottom of the figure and a hole in the top of the deer. ...click for details

The glaze is a very thick white glaze that ends just short of the base of the rest and the base is unglazed. The amusing feature of the brush rest is the inset brownish gold eyes with black pupils giving them quizzical look.
