12th C. Koryo Dynasty (935-1392). This item has been sold. Thank you.

THIS 15th C. THAI SAWANKHALOK stoneware circular “box” is an excellent example of the wares manufactured in the area of Si Satchanalai (about 320 km north of Bangkok) production of which ceased by the early 1500s, owing probably to warfare in the region. Wares such as these were exported primarily to Indonesia, the Philippines and Borneo and are associated with non-Buddhist burial rites and were not actually used in Thailand...

The smallest one of three, Chinese blue and white dishes made for Asian export which can be sold together or separately. The steeply walled dish—the form resembling a western soup bowl—has a partially glazed interior, an indistinct firing ring, and partially glazed center. The interior is decorated in cobalt blue while the exterior is plain with the usualy partially glazed footring and glazed, recessed underside. The lip is slightly angled and glazed...

A Chinese blue and white dish made for export to the Asian market, and one of three being offered, each with slight variations in size, weight and decoration. This particular example is considerably larger than item 1192522, and has a more distinct unglazed kiln-stacking ring at center. The clay body has fired a reddish-brown color, visible through the thin glaze at the center of the bowl and along portions of the rim...

One of three Canton export dishes for the Asian market being offered. This is the largest and heaviest of the three and the most carefully executed. It is of the same diameter as the dish (item 1192535) but slightly deeper and significantly heavier. It also has more gently curved rather than angled walls. The cursive script and the “floral” decorations seem more confidently executed and are very well-balanced...

Late Ming to early Ching dynasty, 17th Century. A small footed blue and white dish made for the domestic Chinese market.

The white glaze, with its characteristic blue-grey tinge, has been evenly applied and the underside of the plate has been carefully glazed and marked. The dish is decorated in underglaze blue, with minor decoration to the exterior...

With a pale ‘egg yolk’ colored glaze, depicting a farmer, ox, willow, fantastic mountains, buildings, hillside, humble dwellings and pavilions amidst fantastic peaked mountains and an inscription to the upper left. This item was probably once an insert to a wooden tablescreen, hanging panel or box. Of finely levigated white porcelain, the thin yellow glaze has been applied only to the face where the white porcelain shows through small areas of the relief carving; the underside is unglazed...
