Provenance : By descent from the vendor’s father who received advice concerning many of his acquisitions from the celebrated English collector H.M.Knight who died in 1970. Perhaps held in low esteem at the time because of the damage this vase was used as a lamp, fortunately with a removable metal fittingwhich, when taken away, revealed a piece in excellent condition apart from the old visible chip at the top. ‘Ge’ and ‘Guan’ type glazes were copied for the court during the eighteenth century and various marked examples are known. The ‘Ge’pieces tend to have a more matt glaze as here and the crackle lines are more precisely defined. Two types are known; perhaps the rarer one is as here where the dark grey crackle is combined with a fine gilt floss effect. Size: Ht 29cm (overall), 24.5cm (vase) Condition: Good condition overall but with a chip at the top as illustrated c1cm x c0.5cm max. View on auctionatrium.com
Lot 15234

This piece is representative of the finest quality wares made for export to the West by the Chines in the early nineteenth century. The combination of underglaze blue and overglaze enamelling indicates that multiple firings were required to produce the finished decorative effects. This vase is probably one of an original pair which were, no doubt, intended for one of the grand houses of nineteenth century Europe. 87cm high Three holes drilled to the base, cracks to the handles, the base with a clean break around the circumference and other small faults View on auctionatrium.com
