A pair rare and fine ceramic with san-cai guardian lions, lively modeled with intricate details, lively modeled, beautiful colors.

Presenting an exceptional Chinese Falangcai enamel plate, a tour de force of ceramic artistry that seamlessly blends the intricate detailing of Fencai with the vibrant hues of Falangcai enameling. This plate is a sublime example of the "Fan Qiang" (over wall) technique, a masterful application that allows the depicted scene to transcend the back of the plate and extend into its front, creating a visually immersive experience. The focal point of this plate is a meticulously rendered vibrant garden scene, where two birds are perched in a blossoming tree. The birds, captured in a moment of serene interaction, are set against a backdrop of blossoming branches, adding layers of symbolism and aesthetic appeal. The garden setting further enhances the naturalistic theme, imbuing the piece with a sense of tranquility and harmony. The plate is finely detailed, employing a combination of Fencai and Falangcai enameling techniques to achieve a rich, multi-layered visual effect. The colors are vibrant yet balanced, capturing the essence of the scene with a remarkable degree of realism. Adding to its historical and collectible value is an apocryphal six-character vertical mark "Da Qing Yong Zheng...

Uniquely fabulous and highly unusual item for those seeking something different; this 18th century "cricket holder" from the Qing Dynasty is in the shape of a fish and is made of hand wrought metal, with nice detail and an open woven body which provided air to the cricket. A sophisticated clasp locking mechanism on the underneath of the fish kept the pet cricket contained in the caged holder. Obviously this was intact when someone at some point in time tried to remove whatever was inside by making a hole at the base of the tail to get it out (see image). This hand held cricket cage holder is in very nice and all original condition, save for the small hole; not fragile in any way; sturdy in structure with no repairs. For over 1000 years the Chinese have used crickets...

A Chinese red lacquer wedding cabinet from Shanxi Province, with hand-painted floral and object motifs, brass hardware, and interior storage. This rectangular cabinet stands on straight legs with a shaped apron and side stretchers, presenting a balanced, architectural silhouette softened by its richly aged red lacquer surface. The two doors are framed within a molded panel and adorned with faded decorative imagery, including vases on stands, scholarly objects, and floral compositions, rendered in subtle gold tones that echo through the surface patina.

Traditionally, cabinets of this type were gifted to brides and used to store dowry items or household linens. This example retains its original function and design details, including the internal layout typical of wedding cabinetry. With its vibrant lacquer, decorative symbolism, and worn elegance, this Shanxi cabinet...
