Guest Book

A rare wine ewer, with warming pot, depicting the famous Tang Dynasty "drunken" poet Li Bai (701 - 762), with one of his best known poems and another inscribed on the warmer. Both poems are signed by the same calligrapher. This item carries the reign mark of the Tongzhi emperor (1862 - 1874)but was probably made a little later during the Guangxu reign (1875-1908). Condition - there are chips to the edges of the warmer (please see enlargement 1). There are no cracks and there has been no restoration. 13.5 cm (5.3 inches)high;9 cm (3.5 inches) wide.

19世纪诗画纹（李白诗）酒壶-同治
形制少见的酒壶，配温酒器。壶身饰唐代酒仙李白大诗人（701-762）及其名诗一首，温酒器上亦刻其诗一首，两首诗由同一书法家署名。此壶有同治（1862-1874）四字款，但估为光绪（1875-1908）时出品。
品相良好，无裂纹无修复，仅温酒器边沿有磕口（见放大图1）。壶高13.5cm，宽9cm。
