Teapots with Cover from Ca Mau Ship, Qing Dynasty, Yongzheng Reign

About the Item

The teapot on the left features a rounded body densely adorned with blooming flowers and intertwining vines, creating a flowing and repetitive pattern. The delicate brushstrokes emphasize the graceful curves of the leaves and stems, while intricate decorative details extend to the lid and handle. In contrast, the teapot on the right has a faceted, three-dimensional structure, with each panel depicting different scenes, including flowers, gardens, pavilions, birds, and trees. The lid is also embellished with finely segmented designs, enhancing the overall sense of structural balance, while the spout and handle incorporate additional intricate patterns. The deep cobalt blue pigment is harmoniously blended with subtle blurring effects, adding to the overall aesthetic refinement.

It is believed the ship was a Chinese merchant’s cargo on its way from Canton (Guangzhou) to Batavia when it caught fire and sank. The merchant had ordered the goods on board for Dutch traders, who had limited access to China and its ports. * Porcelain for the European Market The Ca Mau Cargo consisted of numerous types of porcelain, chinaware and blue and white wares, all designed for the European market. Blue and white ceramics recovered from the cargo appear decorated with the so-called ‘Scheveningen landscape’, also known as ‘Deshima décor’. This motif usually depicted a traditional Dutch fishing village, executed in Chinese style. Chinese wares with Western motives were extremely popular and made to order and were known as ‘China de commande’.
