Chinese Cinnabar Lacquer Cuspidor
Located in New Orleans, LA
This intriguing Chinese zhadou is intricately carved of fine cinnabar lacquer. A work of exceptional artistry, this covered bowl is adorned with an intricately carved floral motif on all surfaces, including the cover and the wide rim. Also known as a cuspidor or spittoon, this rare container would have been used by members of the imperial family and scholar- officials at the court. Carved during the Kangxi period (1662-1722), this charming piece exhibits the high detail and charm associated with items from that period, making it a true treasure, Early 18th century (Kangxi dynasty) Measures: 6 ¼” wide x 3 ¼” high Cinnabar has been revered for its color all over the world. It has been found in the royal burial chambers of the Mayas, in the rituals of India, and in the ruins of ancient Greece and Rome. In China, cinnabar and gold were the two most important elements in alchemy. Mined since the Neolithic Age, cinnabar is the ore of mercury, and as such, it can be incredibly toxic, especially when mining. In fact, during the Roman Empire, miners at Spain’s Almadén mine in Spain were frequently exposed to mercury fumes, and the subsequent, often fatal, sickness was considered an occupational hazard. The most popular known use of cinnabar is in Chinese carved lacquer-ware, a technique that is believed to have originated in the Song Dynasty, in which cinnabar is ground to a powder and added to clear lacquer. As with mining, there was inherent danger of mercury poisoning for those who carved the lacquer, as mercury was also released into the air when artisans ground the pigments. Most antique cinnabar...

Scandinavian Modern Bronze Box, 1930s
By Einar Dragsted
Located in Limhamn, Skåne län
This bronze box, produced by Danish silversmith and metalworker Einar Dragsted, stands as a refined example of mid-century decorative arts in Denmark. Cast in solid bronze, the box is adorned with a series of intricately rendered zodiac motifs that reflect a deep appreciation for classical symbolism and precise metalwork. Each side panel features an individually embossed zodiac sign, arranged in a continuous narrative band around the body of the box. These reliefs are detailed with sculptural clarity, combining mythological iconography with stylized ornamentation. The lid is crowned with a circular relief medallion at its center, depicting celestial elements—stars, constellations, and astral figures—arranged in a compact, symbolically rich composition. The surface exhibits a subtle, darkened patina that highlights the recessed details and lends the object a sense of antiquity and permanence. The finish, likely achieved through a combination of chemical patination and natural aging, gives the box depth and tonal variation while enhancing its sculptural qualities. Opening the box reveals a finely crafted oakwood interior...
