Monumental Pair of Chinese Sancai Glazed Pottery Figures of Guan Yin and Lion
Located in New York, NY
A Monumental pair of Chinese Sancai Glazed pottery figures / sculptures of Guan Yin and Lion on Wood Bases Chinese sancai glazed figures of Guan Yin and lion are a type of ceramic artwork that originated in China during the Tang dynasty (618-907 AD). "Sancai" means "three colors" in Chinese, and refers to the use of three distinct colors of glaze (usually green, yellow, and white) in the creation of these figures. Guan Yin is a Chinese bodhisattva associated with compassion and mercy, and is often depicted holding a vase of healing elixir or a willow branch. The lion, on the other hand, is a symbol of power and strength, and is often used as a guardian figure in Chinese mythology. The combination of Guan Yin and lion in a single artwork is significant, as it represents the union of mercy and power, a common theme in Buddhist and Taoist philosophy. Sancai glazed figures of Guan Yin and lion are highly valued by collectors and art enthusiasts due to their intricate design and rich history. They are often displayed in museums and galleries around the world, and are considered important cultural artifacts...

Blue and White Saucer, Qing Dynasty, Kangxi Era, Circa 1690
Located in seoul, KR
It features a complex design with a central circular motif surrounded by eight petal-like sections, each intricately adorned with various botanical and geometric patterns, creating a symmetrical arrangement. The number 8 in Chinese culture is associated with prosperity and is considered very auspicious. This may reflect the traditional Chinese cosmological concept of the "Bagua," which are eight trigrams used in Taoist philosophy to represent fundamental principles of reality, seen in various aspects of Chinese culture, including the I Ching and Feng Shui. The central circle with radiating petals is also a representation of perfect geometric harmony, reflecting the balance and unity which are key elements in Chinese aesthetics. The use of symmetry and balance is seen as a way to represent the harmony of the universe.

Annamese Blue and White Dish, circa 15th century.
Located in seoul, KR
A blue-and-white porcelain dish with a central floral motif, likely a lotus, which is a recurrent symbol in Asian art representing purity and beauty. The lotus is surrounded by concentric patterns of foliage and vines, typical of the blue-and-white ceramics that were prevalent during the Ming Dynasty. The cobalt blue used for the intricate designs stands out against the white background, giving the piece a timeless elegance. The design's fluidity and organic shapes suggest it was painted by a skilled artisan, making it a fine example of the artistry from the period when it was created.

A Rare Gilted Annamese Blue and white Ewer, Circa 15th Century

Although heavily influenced by the Chinese ceramic tradition, Vietnam materials and potting styles are unique. Technically not ‘porcelain’, which is translucent and pure white, these stonewares are different in appearance from Chinese and other Southeast Asian ceramics.
