Diminutively scaled Chinese blue & white porcelain vase, c. 1680
Located in Kenilworth, IL
Chinese provincial porcelain trumpet form vase on a flaring foot. This diminutively scaled vase is decorated fully in the round in cobalt under glaze blue with blooming peony bough and a magpie fluttering on a branch. This vignette bears auspicious symbols for beauty, wealth and joy. The peony is the queen of all flowers in China and it symbolizes wealth and beauty. The magpie is a harbinger of happiness, thus its name "bird of happiness." There is a tiny ding on the flared mouth rim and also on the foot ring. The dark spots of various sizes represent ashes that landed on the glaze in the firing process which supports the age of the vase when all porcelain objects were stacked high and fired in a wood kiln. On the underside is a double cobalt ring...

27.5CM Antique Ming Wanli Chinese Porcelain Flower Kraak Dish Buddhist Cakras
Located in Amsterdam, Noord Holland
Large late Ming dynasty Wanli period blue and white kraak ware export porcelain deep charger. The centre medaillon is unusually painted with 5 cakras around a flaming scroll forming a five-patelled motif resembling a large flaming wheel. This Buddhist motif may have a central Asian origin. The underside is divided into panels. See Rinaldi, page 95 for a similar dish. CAKRAS . Literally meaning a circle, wheel, or discus, the Sanskrit term cakra plays a key role in both Hindu and Buddhist traditions, particularly in their more esoteric Tantric forms. The term has several uses in various forms of yogic and Tantric practice. Thus cakra may refer to the circle of worship in which a particular ritual is conducted—for example, the highly esoteric cakra pūjā of Hindu Tantric rituals, usually performed in the dead of night in a cremation ground, involving practices that deliberately violate traditional laws of class distinctions and purity. Cakras may also refer to circular diagrams used in meditation and the worship of such specific deities as the famous Śri Cakras or Śri Yantra...
