Chinese Blue and White Fu Lion Headrest
Located in Chicago, IL
This small ceramic block is actually a form of Chinese headrest or neck pillow. Popular during the Qing dynasty, rigid headrests such as this were used by upper-class women to protect their elaborate hairstyles by elevating the head during slumber. This example dates to the early 20th century and is glazed in the blue-and-white style with deep, cobalt-blue color.
The headrest is decorated on all sides with mythical fu lion dogs playing with a brocade ball, a motif that evokes the idiom "may you and your descendant achieve high rank." A powerful and benevolent guardian, the fu lion (shizi) is the perfect force to protect against nightmares and bad energy. A geometric meander trims the edges and small bats frame coin...

Set Six Large Blue and White Chinese Porcelain Plates Hand-Painted Kangxi Era
Located in Katonah, NY
This set of six blue and white Chinese porcelain dishes was hand-painted 300 years ago, circa 1700, during the Kangxi dynasty. According to Sir Harry Garner, author of Oriental Blue and White, "The Kangxi blue and white reached a technical excellence that has never been surpassed."
These dishes are of the rare "double dinner" size, 11" in diameter
The dishes are each hand painted in a vibrant deep cobalt blue. We see a rocky outcropping with a pair of songbirds, beautiful peonies in full bloom, and a delicate flowering plum tree.
The effect is gorgeous!
The crisp cobalt blue border has intricate patterning with panels showing a single peony separated by scrolling vines and floral decoration.
This decorative style was especially popular during the early Kangxi period.*
On the underside, the dishes have the Chinese square or "Fret" mark inside a double circle in underglaze blue.
A traditional Chinese scene can be beautiful and also convey symbolic meaning. Peonies symbolize female beauty, royalty, wealth, and honor in Chinese tradition and have long been adored for their bold size and beautiful colors.
The plum tree flowers early in the spring, announcing the end of winter and the rebirth of nature. Hence, it symbolizes endurance and hope.
Dimensions:11" in diameter x 1" tall
Condition: Excellent
Price: $9,600

Large Japanese Antique Tokoname Tsubo Stoneware Floor Jar
Located in Atlanta, GA
A massive antique stoneware storage jar (known as tsubo in Japanese) circa 16-17th century (Muromachi to early Edo period). The heavily potted jar is of a typical "medieval" form with swelled shoulder, short neck and tapered body, made for vernacular use in the kitchen. The jar is unadorned except the groove lines around the short neck and along the lower half of the body. The surface is covered with a thin glaze with black markings and runoffs resulted from the iron slip interacted with ashes in the kiln fires.
Tokoname ware is one of the six ancient kilns in Japan dated to the 9th century and made in Aichi Prefecture in central Japan. Using local iron-rich clay, it is renowned for its unglazed thick-walled storage jars with a strong Mingei (folky) appeal. When the chado (tea ceremony) became highly appreciated in the 15th century during the Muromachi period, tea masters, equivalent to today's taste makers...
