A Palace Size Pair of Chinese Cloisonné Models of the Tigers on Original Wood Bases, Life Size. A pair of life-size Chinese cloisonné models of tigers, each presented in a striding pose with open mouths, revealing detailed teeth and red enamel tongues. The bodies are decorated with alternating bands of yellow and black, outlined with wirework that defines scrolling cloud-like motifs across the surface. Their muscular forms are supported on rectangular tiered wooden bases carved with decorative friezes. The tails curve outward, echoing the fluidity of the cloisonné design that continues throughout their bodies, including the paws and ears. In Chinese symbolism, these tigers represents the masculine principle in nature and is king of all the animals, as shown by the four stripes on his forehead, which form the character Wang (王). The tiger represents the greatest earthly power, as well as protection over human life. The decoration is executed in traditional cloisonné technique, where copper wire partitions contain colored enamel filled into the tiger’s stripes and background ornamentation. The yellow enamel ground is filled with fine spirals and scrolls that extend across the surface, contrasting with the black bands, which are similarly detailed with wire-drawn motifs. The white enamel underbellies are also worked with scroll patterns, and the noses are rendered in dotted black cloisonné. Each piece is constructed over a metal core, evident from the openings beneath the bodies showing traces of copper and green oxidation around the rims. Chinese cloisonné animal...

A large Chinese basin or bowl crafted out of peachwood, with red lacquer and forged bronze braces, circa 1880.

On offer is a vertical Chinese scholar rock balanced on a carved wood display stand. The specimen is a wonderful example of Ying (or Yingde) stone, one of the four famed stone types known to Chinese literati and a less common type than Lingbi or Taihu. Gray in color, it has an extraordinary upright form rising from a small stem, like an "Avatar Mountain" peeking out of the mist. Visually it feels impossible for the stone to balance on its thin stem and the wood base. The illusion is due to the thickness of the depth which is not immediately visible from front or back. This type of exotic form was highly desired by the collector. The surface is remarkable with pronounced schisms, gullies, folding lines, with several formation of openings that give it a grotto and airy feel. Different sceneries are revealed when viewed from different angles, making this one of the most intriguing stones in Tishu Gallery...

The design features a central medallion surrounded by eight panels, each intricately painted with traditional Chinese botanical and floral motifs. The number 8 in Chinese culture is associated with prosperity and is considered very auspicious. This may reflect the traditional Chinese cosmological concept of the "Bagua," which are eight trigrams used in Taoist philosophy to represent fundamental principles of reality, seen in various aspects of Chinese culture, including the I Ching and Feng Shui. The central circle with radiating petals is also a representation of perfect geometric harmony, reflecting the balance and unity which are key elements in Chinese aesthetics. The use of symmetry and balance is seen as a way to represent the harmony of the universe.
