About the Item

Each side pencil-painted with stylized chrysanthemum, lotus or daisy sprays issuing from rockwork. This blue and white square vase with rounded sides has a flaring mouth and a long neck. This shape can be traced back to Chinese bronzes. It is decorated with floral motifs on four sides in underglaze blue. This piece was originally part of a pair, but the other has already been sold. Period : Qing Dynasty, Kangxi Period(1690-1699) Origin : Jingdezhen Destination : Netherland Found/Acquired : Southeast Asia , South China Sea, Vung Tau Ship Reference : Double checked with reference to the original catalogues below 1) Christies Amsterdam 1992 - Vung Tau Cargo / Christies 2) Qing Dynasty Export Blue and White(淸代外销靑花瓷) - Vung Tau Cargo Catalogue / Guangxi Fine Art Publishing House 3) Asian Ceramic Found along Maritime Silk Route / National Maritime Museum of Korea * Vung Tau Cargo Porcelain The Vung Tau Cargo was found in the South China Sea off the islands of Con Dao about 100 nautical miles (185 km; 115 mi) from Vung Tau, Vietanam. The ship was of a lorcha boat—a vessel with Cantonese/Chinese and Portuguese/European influences that has been dated to about 1690. It was found by a fisherman who had picked up numerous pieces of porcelain from the ship while fishing. Sverker Hallstrom identified the ship and its cargo in 1990. Australian diver Michael Flecker took charge of the archaeological aspect of the excavation. An analysis of its cargo deduced that the ship was bound from China to Jakarta, Indonesia, where the porcelain would have been purchased by the Dutch East India Company for trans-shipment to Holland, Europe as a commercial trade goods.
