The Art and Orchid Gallery's antique large Tibetan bowl with cover is multimedia and probably multi-cultural . It is an unusually skillful, ingenious and creative mixture of decorative motifs and techniques. It has the typical ambiguity of provenance one finds in objects of "Tibetan Art".[187A] This exemplary creation exhibits Chinese brightly enameled metals over Indian repousse copper lotus designs and appliques of carved semi-precious stones, characteristic of Nepalese craftsme ...click for details

The Art and Orchid Gallery's ceramic covered bowl is an antiquity from Southeast Asia, made in the ancient Sawankhalok or Annam kilns during the 14th-15th Century.

The Art and Orchid Gallery's cinerary, or funerary, urn with cover is made of a very translucent porcelain.(see photos) Even with its interior brown stained crackle glaze and fine enamel colors over glazed exterior, one can easily pass light through the urn. It was probably made in South China for export to Siam ( now Thailand). This may have been as early as 1775 based on referenced colors, particularly the red ground for the Siamese Buddhist deities.[198A] The major ornamentation is altern ...click for details

Bronze Hinged-Top Flacon Catalogue: Antiques: Regional Art: Asian: Southeast Asian: Metalwork: Pre 1920 item# 1132873 (stock# 339AOG)
click for details		The Art and Orchid Gallery 561-575-6868 $156
This flacon is a heavy bronze footed vessel covered with embossed Indian motifs. The engraving, chiseling and embossing done by Indian bronze metal workers suggests a 19th Century British controlled time period. The most obvious pattern is the Indian lotus scroll, borrowed long ago by the Chinese for their decorative arts. The peacock finial on the hinged cover is similar to peacocks on Indian castings and is painted in early 17th Century Indian manuscripts.[135M, 145MM, 147R] The triangle fret ...click for details
