Chinese Pottery Ceramic Glazed Mud Figure of Court Lady Tang Dynasty with Stand
Located in Studio City, CA
Simply gorgeous and so delicately and beautifully made. This work has been molded in a whitish, dense terracotta, typical of the region of the capital of Luoyang, and then lightly glazed.
We are not sure how to date this work. We believe, based on comparisons, that this piece could date as far back as the Tang dynasty (though we are not experts and have not had this verified by one. Again, this is not our area of expertise). The white terracotta and glaze appear correct as does the figures stately pose and elaborate hairstyle which was a characteristic feature of Tang pottery women. The people of ancient China believed that some part of the essence and life force of a human being was contained in the hair. Much time and effort went into this to create elaborate coiffures that the woman proudly displayed when in public. The Tang dynasty is also the only period in Chinese History to have known a female sovereign, The Empress Wu Zetian (625-706).

Exquisite Chinese Delft Tea Pot 19th Century with Temple Guardian Lions Motif
Located in New York, NY
During the early 17th century, the Dutch East India Company imported millions of pieces of Chinese porcelain to the Netherlands in order to meet a seemingly insatiable demand among the aristocratic class. Following the death of the Chinese emperor Wanli in 1620, the supply of Chinese porcelain to Europe was cut off and Dutch potters started to imitate it. This gorgeous vase is believed to be among those reproductions from the 18th or 19th century. It is inscribed on the bottom "Qing Dynasty Kangxi" in Mandarin. Kangxi corresponds to the name of the emperor who ruled China between 1654-1722 A.D. ostensibly dating the piece to that time period. This teapot is believed to have been realized in the centuries following, however. It is nonetheless a stunning decorative object, with its sapphire blue renderings of traditional Chinese motifs set against a porcelain white background. It also represents a rare and remarkable piece of Delft history, symbolizing a centuries old dialogue between East and West. The piece is decorated with stylized wave and cloud motifs, and traditional Chinese temple guardian lions...
