‘Chinese Ceramics & Works of Art’ 

For this special twenty-fifth edition of ‘Asian Art in London’ we have chosen a group of pieces that represent the diversity of material we like to deal with in our day-to-day business. Each piece tells a story and has been selected not solely for monetary importance but for their beauty and how they speak to us.

Amongst the highlights are an important incised and gilt burnt jade brush pot (Kangxi period) with impeccable provenance, an important imperial inscribed mottled jade boulder (Qianlong period) from a private Taiwanese collection, a pale celadon dog (Song dynasty) previously in the collections of Raymond Oppenheimer and Anthony du Boulay and an excellent and rare cloisonné enamel pilgrim flask (Ming dynasty, first half 17th century).
