Ming Bowls and Baskets

MING STYLE

In what’s considered a golden age of Chinese furniture, Ming dynasty artisans produced expertly made designs that married elegance and function. Ming furniture was versatile, such as tables that doubled as writing desks and dining spaces. But it was also beautiful, enhancing a room with clean lines, soft curves and sophisticated decoration.

Dating from 1368 to 1644, the Ming dynasty was a vibrant time for international trade and culture. Especially for scholars and the wealthy, there was an emphasis on a home’s design to promote a good life. From large wardrobes to angular sofas, Ming-style furniture was defined by its joinery, which, instead of nails, involved meticulously designed interlocking elements of wood. This material was carefully selected and positioned to make the grain part of the design. The slow-growing huanghuali, a yellowish rosewood, was particularly valued for its bright color.

Although ornamentation was minimal, Ming dynasty furniture often featured carved or painted details of flowers, insects, dragons, fruits and other motifs. Chairs crafted for scholars could include calligraphic brush writing. As overseas trade expanded, techniques from the West, like cloisonné enamel painting, adorned table screens and other pieces.

Ming furniture influenced styles abroad such as Queen Anne in England and Hollywood Regency in the United States. The curved shape of Ming armchairs had a profound impact on legendary Scandinavian modernist furniture designer Hans Wegner. The Danish cabinetmaker shared the Ming artisans’ interest in creating streamlined, functional furnishings, and his China chair, Round chair and Wishbone chair are inspired by Ming dynasty seating. Today, the Ming-style horseshoe chair is a graceful and sought-after type of seat, and contemporary Chinese designers such as Jerry Chen and Gan Erke are also drawing on this heritage for a new era of style.

This refined porcelain rice bowl dates to the late Ming dynasty and is beautifully decorated in the blue-and-white style.

At the center of the bowl is a round medallion of a lotus flower in bloom, a symbol of purity and perfection. The matte texture and eroded finish suggests the bowl spent many years submerged in saltwater and was likely excavated from a sunken trade ship carrying ceramic exports...

Massive Chinese Blue and White Punch Bowl Decorated with Fish
Located in Katonah, NY
We are pleased to offer this massive hand-painted Chinese blue and white punch bowl with decoration based on the popular fish-and-aquatic plants motif. This motif was frequently painted on blue and white porcelain beginning in the Yuan-era (1271-1368). The exterior of the bowl is painted in deep and vibrant tones of underglaze blue. We see fish swimming singly and in pairs in an underwater jungle of lotus and water weeds. Lotus panels encircle the base of the bowl. The well in the interior of the bowl is painted with a single fish swimming amidst lotus and water weeds. The top rim has a design known in Chinese tradition as waves and tides. The underside of the everted rim is decorated with a pattern of rolling waves. The underside of the bowl is unglazed showing the underlying stoneware (see images #14). As an interesting aside, fish swimming in ponds creates the Chinese pun “qing bai...
