This is a very rare large 18th century flambe glazed porcelain censer. It is covered overall in an attractive glossy flambe glaze mottled with a few green spots. Unfortunately, there is a long crack which extends from the rim to the base although it was repaired and stabilized. It should be regarded as a rare piece because of its large size, age and fine glaze. Date: 18th century; Height: 11.8 cm, Max.

This is a fine and rare Ming dynasty white jade bixie. Bixie are carvings of mythical beasts which were used as tomb guards in ancient China. This bixie was finely carved and looks attractive and amiable. The fine craftsmanship and quality show that it was probably made for an aristocratic tomb. It had been buried underground so its surface is calcified and one of its legs is slightly cracked. It has a fitted hard wood stand which was probably added later by a scholar so that it can be placed on ...click for details

This is a fine and interesting Japanese contemporary studio ceramic dish. It has a naturalistically potted shape and a crytallised glaze with patterns that remind you of nature. In my opinion, the patterns look like the seashore and shells. The three natural stone boulder feet and the signature in the shape of a footprint on the back make it look even more naturalistic. Dating: 20th century; Diameter: 9.75 inches; height: 1.6 inches; Condition: pristine; Provenance: sold at Christie's London ...click for details

The figures and the fences are made of solid ivory while the terrace is made of wood covered with ivory pieces inlaid with moth ...click for details

This is a very fine Northern Song dynasty (AD 960 - 1127) Yaozhou hand-moulded celadon conical bowl. It was beautifully moulded with chrysanthemum scrolls in the inside and carved with slant lines on the outside. It was covered overall with a thick and glossy olive green glaze falling short of the foot exposing the greyish white body. It is in perfect condition except one dark spot on the rim caused by kiln ash as shown in the enlargements. Dating: Northern Song dynasty (AD 960 - 1127); Diameter ...click for details
