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 Famille Rose Hundred Antiques Porcelain Bowl, Yongzheng-Qianlong
Chinese Export Famille Rose Hundred Antiques Porcelain Bowl, Yongzheng-Qianlong

Chinese Export Famille Rose Hundred Antiques Porcelain Bowl, Yongzheng-Qianlong

Located in Downingtown, PA

A fine Chinese Export porcelain punch bowl, Yongzheng–early Qianlong period, circa 1735–1740, painted in the famille rose palette with a distinctive version of the "Hundred Antiques" theme, unusual for its focus on furniture and precious objects rather than figures. Around the exterior are ranged a canopied couch and red-lacquer scholar's stands set with vases, flowering branches, and jardinières of peonies, together with tables bearing brush pots, censers, and boxes — a catalogue of the furnishings and treasures of the cultivated Chinese interior, giving the bowl an almost interior-portrait quality. The interior is centered with a beribboned vase of flowers within a cell-diaper and floral-panel border. The famille rose palette — named for the opaque rose-pink enamel derived from colloidal gold, introduced in the 1720s — transformed export porcelain in the second quarter of the 18th century. Bowls of the 1730s such as this, painted at the transition from the Yongzheng to the Qianlong reign, are among the most delicately enamelled of all export wares. The "Hundred Antiques" was a favored auspicious theme, a gathering of objects emblematic of scholarship and good fortune; the present bowl's emphasis on domestic...

Chinese Export Porcelain Punch Bowl Sailor Farwell & Return with Royal Navy Ship
Chinese Export Porcelain Punch Bowl Sailor Farwell & Return with Royal Navy Ship

Chinese Export Porcelain Punch Bowl Sailor Farwell & Return with Royal Navy Ship

Located in Downingtown, PA

Chinese Export Porcelain Sailor’s Farewell & Return Punch Bowl, Royal Navy Ship This Chinese export porcelain punch bowl was painted in famille rose enamels for the English market with the paired subjects known as The Sailor’s Farewell and The Sailor’s Return, one on either side of the exterior, the two scenes divided by large flowering branches of chrysanthemum and prunus in iron-red, rose and turquoise. The bowl is of deep rounded form on a short straight foot ring, the interior plain but for a spray of the same flowering branches in the well and a narrow border at the rim, so that the two figure subjects carry the whole of the decoration and can be read in turn as the bowl is passed around a table. In the Farewell, a couple stand embracing on a rocky shore, the man in a black tricorn and blue coat, the woman in a striped bodice and full orange-yellow skirt, his free arm thrown out to point across the water at the ship that will carry him away. She is a three-masted vessel lying close inshore, her hull and rigging drawn in iron-red and fine grey-black line, her sails left in reserve and outlined only, with red streamers at the mastheads and a blue ensign with the union in the canton at the stern. The sea is drawn as a band of fine wave lines washing over a green shoal, with a rocky islet and dark blue-green scrub at the water’s edge. In the Return, the same couple stand on a rocky ground scattered with blue-green shrubs, the man now facing his sweetheart across the fortune he has brought home. He wears a black tricorn edged in gilt over a powdered wig, a white cravat, a blue coat lined in puce with wide turned-back cuffs, a striped waistcoat bordered in yellow, an embroidered belt in brown and turquoise, orange-red breeches and white stockings, and he carries a long slender cane with a sword hanging behind him. From his raised right hand, the wrist deep in lace, he dangles a gold pocket watch by its chain over the green apron the woman holds up between them; in the apron lie some ten gold coins and a dark purse studded with gold. She wears a lace-edged cap with blue and yellow lappets, a coral bead necklace, a white stomacher, a yellow jacket with a green shawl and a full ribbed puce skirt, and in her right hand she holds a red flower. Both figures are dressed as gentlefolk rather than as seafarers, which is usual on bowls of this class, the compositions having been copied at Canton from European genre prints rather than drawn from life. The rim is finished with a gilt line at the edge, and inside it a narrow border of pendant trefoils in iron-red with dotted terminals hangs from a second gilt line, the only border on the piece. The flags repay a second look. From 1707 until 1864 the Royal Navy was divided into red, white and blue squadrons, each wearing an ensign of its own color, while British merchantmen wore the red; the blue ensign here therefore marks the vessel as a naval one rather than an East Indiaman, and it is that identification which sets this bowl apart from the more commonly encountered versions flying the striped ensign of the East India Company. The Sailor’s Farewell and The Sailor’s Return were among the most widely circulated of English popular subjects through the eighteenth century, sustained by ballad and by cheap print, and a customer placing an order at Canton sent out the engraving for the Chinese painters to copy, color for color, from an image whose language they could not read. Dimensions Diameter: 10¼ inches (26.0 cm) Height: 4½ inches (11.4 cm) Marks None. Chinese export porcelain painted to European order in this period is characteristically unmarked. Provenance Elinor Gordon, Villanova, Pennsylvania Collection of Roy and Ruth Nutt Earle D. Vandekar of Knightsbridge Condition Very good, with some fading to the grey-black line work of the ship’s sails and rigging, light wear to the gilt at the rim, a few dark firing specks in the glaze and light soiling to the unglazed foot rim. No cracks, chips or restoration. References David S...
