IRON-RED-DECORATED WHITE-GLAZED SOFT-PASTE MOONFLASK VASE YONGZHENG MARK AND POSSIBLY OF THE PERIOD 雍正款或到代 礬紅加彩白釉漿胎雙龍抱月瓶the circular body sturdily potted and supported on a splayed foot, surmounted with a short neck with disc-shaped mouth, each of the circular sides moulded in low relief with two four-clawed sinuous dragons surrounded by ruyi- head clouds, the long sides further adorned with archaistic key-fret patterns highlight in iron-red and gilt paint, covered overall with a white glaze with ivory tinge and fine craquelure, leaving only the foot rim unglazed, the base incised with a six-character Yongzheng mark under the glaze 28cm high The qualities of the present vase - the slight ivory tinge of the crackled glaze and the crisp decoration - are all characteristic of 'soft-paste' porcelain, a technique developed in the 18th century for making white porcelain. This technique was developed as an attempt to imitate the ivory-white Ding wares from the Song dynasty. The body was particularly fine textured and therefore ideal for very crisp moulded, carved and incised designs, as seen on this vase. The glaze on these soft-paste porcelains usually has a finely crackled appearance.'Soft paste' involves the addition of a powdered white clay to the porcelain body, which is called hua shi (slippery stone), and the resulting lightweight ware with delicately moulded and incised designs, was actually more expensive to produce than a standard kaolin body, as Pere d'Entrecolles observed in his second letter of 1722. For a full discussion, see R. Kerr, Chinese Ceramics: Porcelain of the Qing Dynasty 1644-1911, 1986, pp. 52-53, where the author also illustrates a Qianlong 'soft paste' vase in the Victoria and Albert Museum, fig. 29, accession number C.551-1910. A closely comparable moonflask of similar two-dragon decoration, was sold at Sotheby's Hong Kong, 16th May 1977, lot 217. Another white-glazed soft-paste moonflask, carved with shou characters and dated to the Qianlong period, was sold at Sotheby's London, 1 November 2023, lot 15. Other soft-paste examples include a white-glazed hu-form vase with elephant heads and cloud design, dated to the Qianlong period, is in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, accession number: 29.100.279.
LARGE BLUE AND WHITE 'DRAGON' BRUSH WASHER YONGZHENG MARK, 19TH-20TH CENTURY 十九至二十世紀 雍正款 青花雙龍搶珠大筆洗of cylindrical form, the straight side painted two five-clawed dragons chasing for a flaming pearl, the base inscribed with a six-character apocryphal Yongzheng mark in underglaze blue 25.6cm diameter Collection of Sir Alan Campbell, GCMG, thence by descent to his daughterThe diplomat Alan Campbell (later Sir Alan Campbell, 1919-2007) was the youngest son of Hugh Campbell, (1873-1943) silk merchant and Director of Ilbert & Co, Shanghai. In 1905 Hugh Campbell married Ethel Warren (1881-1951) daughter of HM Consul-General in Shanghai, Sir Pelham Warren (1845-1923). Alan Campbell, who inherited an interest in Chinese porcelain from his parents, probably acquired this dish in Beijing in 1956-57 during his time as Head of Chancery at the British Legation. His neighbour and colleague in the Legation was John Addis (later Sir John Addis KCMG, 1914-83, British Ambassador to China 1972-4), a collector and authority on Ming porcelain, who made important donations of ceramics and textiles to the British Museum and the V&A; Museum. Campbell’s memoir Colleagues and Friends, published in 1988, mentions shopping for antiquities in Wig Street and getting ‘sound advice’ from Addis.
