+ LEGENDARY LI BAI / ZHUXI LIUYI CHINESE EXPORT SILVER DRAGON-HANDLED FLAGON l

Located in Galveston, TX

The Poet Li Bai & the "Zhuxi Liuyi" Literati at Culai Mountain Peerless Tang Dynasty poet, Li Bai, who famously drowned drunk in the Yangtze River while trying to embrace the moon's watery reflection astride his boat, was immortalized by his friend Du Fu's satirical poem Yinzhong Baxian (8 Immortals of the Wine Cup - in reality, Li Bai, cavorting with his Imperial & noble literati friends). Imbibement was Li Bai's method of poetic inspiration, and the reference upon this vessel meant for alcohol consumption is no accident, making it the quintessential Chinese Export Silver drinking vessel of this type. In contrast to the common village vignettes & violent battle scenes typically found on similar vessels, we are instead treated here to a sophisticated diorama of the most elevated pursuits: Li Bai & his renowned literati group, the Zhuxi Liuyi (Li Bai, Pei Zhen, Kong Chaofu, Zhang Shuming, Han Zhun, and Du Fu) engaged in the classical arts of calligraphy, poetry, guzheng, and weiqi (圍棋) - all stimulated by cups of wine flowing from the hands of servant boys. The literati are surrounded by auspicious symbols of immortality, from lingzhi-covered ancient trees to flying cranes to mist-encircled heights replete with pagodas, bamboo, and viewing stones. The foreground bamboo stream with floating waterfowl & lotus blossoms identifies Li Bai's real-world home in Zhuxi (which means "Bamboo Stream") at Culai Mountain (in Shandong). Similar depictions of Li Bai & this illustrious group of six can be found on priceless Qianlong jade brush pots...

Antique and Vintage Silver, Flatware and Silver Plate

While early utensils were often shaped from clay, wood or bone, silversmiths later crafted flatware from precious metal. In the 19th century, mass production of electroplated flatware made silver utensils accessible to the middle class. Now, antique and vintage silver, flatware and silver-plate objects for dining and the home are heritage pieces reflecting this history of design.

Silver spoons were so prized in 15th-century England that people would travel with the valuable utensils. Forks in the 17th century were frequently made with steel and likewise only available to the upper class. Silver flatware continued to be produced in small workshops in the 18th century and was a luxury reserved for the elite. When George I came to the throne in 1714, the silver dining service — including plates, dishes, soup tureens, chargers and sauceboats — became all-important.

Innovative manufacturing techniques such as the electroplating process in the 19th century would transform silversmithing with industrialization. Sheffield plate was used from 1750 to 1880 and involved a fusion method to fabricate everything from knife handles to serveware. French industrial chemist Henri de Ruolz discovered a gilding and silver-plating process for metals in 1841, with the silver-like results so celebrated that Napoleon III ordered a 3,000-piece flatware set. The expansion of table service in the Victorian era also led to an increasing number of flatware and serving pieces in a canteen, or cutlery chest, all with specific uses, from toast forks to butter picks.

While affordable metal flatware is widely available today, historic brands including Gorham Manufacturing Company — whose legendary contribution to the history of silver making started in 1831 — and Christofle continue the tradition of silver and silver-plate flatware.

Browse 1stDibs for both antique and contemporary silver, flatware and silver-plate objects in a range of elegant designs to enhance your dining table.
