A chinese cloisonne box with hinged lid decorated with flowers on a turquoise ground.Probably dating from the C19th. (possibly early C20th.), it measures 4 3/4 x 3 3/8 x 2 1/8inches (12x8.5x5.2 cms). It is in very good condition.There are a few surface bubbles from the firing. The interior base looks as if there was a firing problem which was repaired contemporaneously by adding more enamel and refiring. There is no sign on the exterior base.

A very unusual chinese porcelain baluster vase decorated in famille rose in the "Batavian" style but on a mirror black ground. I am not sure whether this is an experimental piece as the black glaze is very difficult to control and has migrated in the firing. I think this ground is rare as it is the only one I have ever seen.Dating from the C18th., it stands 9 14inches (23.5 cms) high. As mentioned, the black glaze has run and fled from the surface in some areas (original). There is fritting to the footrim, and a shallow flake and short hairline to the rim.
