Chinese Export Serveware, Ceramics, Silver and Glass

CHINESE EXPORT STYLE

Expanded trade between Europe and East Asia, starting in the 16th century, led to a booming market for exported goods, particularly furniture. This was bolstered by the establishment of the Dutch and English East India Companies at the beginning of the 17th century. From folding screens and chairs to lacquer tables and silver, Chinese Export furniture was in demand and regularly copied and imitated, leading to styles like chinoiserie and Chinese Chippendale.

The expansion of exporting that had strengthened the arts during the Ming dynasty continued into the Qing dynasty era — Chinese designers made many furniture pieces specifically for export, resulting in distinctive designs that mixed traditional techniques with forms appealing to foreign buyers. For instance, cabinetmakers in Canton (modern-day Guangzhou) were prolific in crafting hardwood furniture for export in European styles that involved the expert joinery techniques of Chinese furniture. Designs for Chinese Export porcelain, cabinets, decorative objects and other furniture were often more ornately adorned than they would be for a local audience, such as with mother-of-pearl overlays or surfaces featuring lavish pictorial scenes or gold on black motifs. Some were even commissioned by wealthy European families to be adorned with their coat of arms.

Because lacquer furniture was especially prized, and the resin used to create it was difficult to import as it would harden during the long voyage, artisans in China and Japan exported numerous lacquer pieces. Long before lacquer made its way to Japan, the Chinese treated the material differently. They used it to create smooth, glossy surfaces, but also for carving, an art that began in the 12th century and is exclusively Chinese. These pieces are called cinnabar lacquer after the powdered mercury sulfide (cinnabar) employed to produce their characteristic red hue. A popular form for export was a compact cabinet with drawers, usually displayed on a small table. Undecorated furniture built in Europe was also shipped to China to be lacquered. The international exchange of design would influence furniture into the 19th century and later, informing styles such as Art Deco and Art Nouveau.

Chinese Export Blue & White Porcelain Shaped Dish with Buffalo and Deer
Located in Downingtown, PA
Chinese Export Blue & White Porcelain Dish with Buffalo and Deer, Circa 1770 The Chinese Export porcelain rococo oval dish has a wide diaper border with shaped panels of flowers. The central well depicts a lovely scene with a water buffalo and its calf grazing with a deer on the other side of a zig-zag fence. Perched in a tree is a large crane and a small bird flies above. It also features a Plum tree, Bamboo and a Pine tree, the three friends of winter. The Three Friends of Winter is an art motif that comprises the pine, bamboo, and plum. The Chinese celebrated the pine (松), bamboo (竹) and Chinese flowering plum (梅) together, for they observed that unlike many other plants these plants do not wither as the cold days deepen into the winter season. Together they symbolize steadfastness, perseverance, and resilience. While They are highly regarded in Confucianism as representing its scholar-gentleman ideal. Dimensions: 15 inches wide x 12 inches deep x 1 1/2 inches high Reference: In Chinese art and culture, the water buffalo symbolizes strength, endurance, hard work, prosperity, and a link to agriculture and rural life, often depicted as a mount for important figures or in scenes of everyday life. Here's a more detailed look at the symbolism: Agriculture and Rural Life: The water buffalo is deeply ingrained in Chinese agricultural traditions, as it was and continues to be a vital part of rice farming and the rural economy. Strength and Endurance: The buffalo's physical capabilities, particularly its strength and ability to work tirelessly, make it a symbol of these qualities. Benevolence and Patience: The water buffalo is also associated with benevolence and patience, reflecting the calm and steady nature of the animal. Guardian: The buffalo was seen as a guardian, stemming from the legend of Emperor Yu casting an iron ox to subdue floods. Mount for Important Figures: Water buffalo are often depicted as mounts for figures like Shou Lao, the God of Longevity, and in Daoist art...
