Chinese Export Porcelain Double Peacock Soup Tureen, Cover and Stand, Circa 1765 This Chinese export famille rose soup tureen, cover and stand is painted with the celebrated “Double Peacock” pattern, one of the most distinguished designs produced for the European market in the Qianlong period. The oval stand, its shaped rim scalloped in gentle lobes, and the oval tureen, its swelling bombé sides rising from a spreading molded foot, are decorated en suite with a pair of peacocks perched upon pierced garden rockwork amid flowering peonies, chrysanthemums and leafy branches. The birds are finely rendered, their plumage worked in rich tones of green, blue, ochre and iron-red, the long tail feathers sweeping across the white ground, while a profusion of blossoms in deep rose-pink, coral and soft green fills the surrounding field. The low domed cover repeats the floral decoration and is surmounted by a boldly modeled pomegranate knop in iron-red and gilt, and the sides of the tureen are flanked by a pair of hare’s-head handles, also in iron-red with gilt spotting. A spearhead border frames the central composition of the stand and runs around the foot of the tureen, while the rims are banded with a running gilt trellis on an iron-red ground, interrupted at intervals by reserved panels of underglaze blue scrolling ornament that lend depth and vivacity to the palette. Dimensions Overall, assembled: Width: 15 inches (38.1 cm) Depth: 11¾ inches (29.8 cm) Height: 9¾ inches (24.8 cm) Tureen: Width: 13¼ inches (33.7 cm) Depth: 9¼ inches (23.5 cm) Height: 9 inches (22.9 cm) Stand: Width: 15 inches (38.1 cm) Depth: 11¾ inches (29.8 cm) Height: 2½ inches (6.4 cm) Provenance Private collection. Condition Good antique condition throughout, the vibrant famille rose enamels, underglaze blue borders and extensive gilt highlights remaining remarkably bright, crisp and well preserved across all three components. Historical Context The “Double Peacock” pattern, the Serviço dos Pavões of Portuguese and Brazilian collectors, is among the most celebrated of all Chinese export famille rose designs. It was produced in great quantity for the open market, an estimated twenty thousand pieces between about 1750 and 1795, and has always been particularly prized in Portugal, Brazil and England; the Brazilian authority José de Almeida Santos, in his Manual do Colecionador Brasileiro (1950), ranked it the finest of the famille rose services made to European commission and singled out the drawing of the birds. Much of its renown rests on a royal association. The Portuguese royal house owned a service of the design, and when the French invasion of November 1807 drove the Braganza court into exile, the Prince Regent Dom João, King João VI from 1816, sailed for Brazil with his mother, Queen Maria I, and the court, carrying his Chinese porcelain services...

Chinese Export Porcelain Dutch Armorial Plates, Arms of Van Gellicum, Chinese Imari Rouge de Fer, Late Kangxi Period, Circa 1720–1730 This exceptional pair of Chinese Export porcelain armorial plates was commissioned for the Dutch Van Gellicum family in the late Kangxi period, circa 1720–1730. The plates are masterfully decorated in the striking rouge de fer palette of the Chinese Imari taste, featuring a central coat of arms encircled by a delicate floral scroll border. The outer rim is richly adorned with rocks, flowers, leaves, and distinctive zig-zag lines. These zig-zag motifs represent a thunderbolt, a design element frequently seen on Delft faience of the first quarter of the 18th century, itself heavily influenced by Japanese patterns. Between the center and rim lies an elegant band of scrollwork and intricate flower sprays. The prominent coat of arms features a chevron between three eagles and a bezant, with an unidentified charge in chief. The crest displays a heron-like bird clutching an eel or snake in its beak, positioned gracefully between two wings. According to Jochem Kroes in Chinese Armorial Porcelain for the Dutch Market, Chinese porcelain bearing this Dutch family...

Hold a piece of 18th-century France. This exceptional earthenware deep plate, originating from the revered kilns of Moustiers, is a ceramic canvas of Rococo wit and whimsey. Executed in the highly sought-after yellow monochrome (ochre), the central well explodes with a vibrant, tiered tableau. Here, history is playful. We invite your eyes to dance among the intricate grotesques in the distinctive manner of Jacques Callot. It is a world of theatrical caprice: a dramatic winged beast, an elaborately costumed performer, and a whimsical unicorn-like rider sharing space with fluttering butterflies and palm trees. Every glance reveals a new, charming detail of this Commedia dell'arte-inspired scene. The scalloped rim, bordered by refined ochre bands and intricate floral sprigs, frames this spectacle. This item possesses a deep, honest patina of time. We view its imperfections—a fine, historic vertical hairline crack through the body, professionally stabilized to preserve structural integrity, and various wear marks—not as damage, but as the authentic signatures of centuries of curation and history. It is a tangible link to a grander era. This Moustiers plate...
