About the Item
Miniature 17th century blue and white mallet-shaped vase.
This miniature vase was part of a hoard recovered by Captain Michael Hatcher from the wreck of a ship that sunk in the South China sea in approximately 1643. Approximately 25,000 pieces from that shipment were sold at auction at Christies Amsterdam in 1984, which we attended. Most of these pieces were tableware in the Dutch taste, known as "Kraak" porcelain, but we decided to focus on the Transitional ware pieces, which reflected more purely Chinese taste and to select the most rare and unique porcelain. The Transitional period, which took place between the Ming and Qing dynasties, and which ran from the beginning of the 17th century until approximately 1660, marked a shift in Chinese ceramic styles as the pieces became more original, poetic, and more freely drawn than those made in the official kilns.
This charming little vase is the smallest of our collection, with molded petals on its base, a cloud band around the neck and an unusual graphic design on the shoulder. Due to its 300-year underwater sojourn, the colors are soft and the finish appears matte.
This vase is in excellent condition, without any visible chips or cracks.
