About the Item
An elegant Mason’s ironstone Chinese style octagonal bowl decorated with delicate gilt and colored animal designs against a deep Mazarine-blue ground. A rich decoration animates the inside with a gilt rim and scallops enclosing stylized lotus flower patterns, symbolizing purity, on a rolling waves background. Exotic birds and peacocks in a landscape, representing enlightenment, surround the round bottom of the bowl adorned with a gilt shou medallion, symbol of longevity. Five-clawed dragons stride along the outer body, auspicious mythical beasts embodying imperial power. Also known as English porcelain, ironstone china was developed by Mason’s factory - whose printed mark appears on the bottom- during the 19th century to emulate the popular Chinese-style porcelain dinner services. This type of piece has only been produced for 10 years prior to WWI. This exquisite Mason’s ironstone bowl circa 1905, with its refined traditional Chinese gilt and colored decoration on blue ground and original octagonal shape, would be a remarkable addition to any collection.

Chinese Barrel-Form Brass Urn with Traditional Archaistic Ornamentation and Lid
Located in Palm Desert, CA
A Chinese four-legged barrel-form brass urn cast and engraved with archaistic decoration from the 20th century. The gently rounded sides are cast with the dispersed elements of two taotie masks, Archaistic auspicious beasts formed by a pair of stylized and confronted dragons which constitutes the features of this mythical creature, abstractly rendered in low-relief hooked curls. Two bands of kui or passing dragons flank the taotie ornamentation on the belly, all upon an engraved and very finely delineated white leiwen ground symbolizing thunder. Raised on four atlantes with a few anatomical engraved details, the urn possesses a flat circular lid decorated with stylized birds and topped with a phoenix-shaped knob with a ring, a propitious symbol in Chinese art. The white engraved ground nicely contrasting with the dark patina along with the Archaistic traditional low relief decoration echoes Chinese archaic ritual bronzes used in ceremonies or buried in the tombs of the elites for use in the afterlife. This Chinese barrel...
