A pottery model of a wash stand and basin made during the 16th century (c.1550 - 1600). The stand is made from a hard creamy-white pottery and coated in green and golden-yellow glazes that have, in places, acquired a silvery iridescence, a result of very long exposure to moisture. The four finials of the stand have been painted in red pigment. The basin is made from a pale-reddish pottery with its upper surface coated in a thick amber glaze.
Total height 18 cm. The basin has been broken and re-stuck, and there are signs of repair to a finial and one support. There may be other repairs but none are obvious.
One of a collection of Ming Dynasty pottery models of furniture and related items we are selling, from an English collection, acquired in Hong Kong many years ago.
