About the Item

The Ming period or Great Ming Period is the last Han ruled dynasty in Chinese history. Considers a high mark culturally and influenced by great events at home and wider contact with outside influences the Ming excelled in porcelain and pottery production. Tolerant of religion and very chimerical oriented the Ming saw great expansion of China's boundaries, held great influence over much of Asia and excelled in not only scientific but artistic en devours. This Buddhistic censor in glazed earthen ware is from the Ming dynasty circa 1500 to 1600. Made of simple earthenware and glazed in a dramatic three-color way the shades range from a rich amber to turquoise and green. The flat band around the neck is covered in Buddhist monks, the handles are dragons and the feet issue from beasts' mouths while the swelled body contains other Buddhist emblems. The glaze is chipped and distressed but this is expected for the material and its age and use. In the 1920 a stand of rosewood and a lid of rosewood have been made to elevate and venerate the object. As a further nod to the past, a late 19th-century finial carved in the shape of a stork holding a lotus leaf and flower has been used to decorate the top of the lid.

Chinese Arcaistic Style Cast Bronze Lidded Urn with Carved Jade Finial

Located in Hudson, NY

This very finely cast bronze urn in an archaistic form was made in the very late 19th century approximately 1895-1900. Done with an apocryphal feeling to honor the ancient past, the vase is beautifully rendered in low relief in bronze covering almost the entire body of the urn. The predominant features are the divided taotie masks that compose the swelling middle body of the vase and also at the corners of the upper section. Crisp but subtle, the casting is clearly handled with great attention to linear form. The patina is very nice and consists of a modeled golden brown with a slight but very lite Verdigris color. The urn has an old rosewood base and lid that seems to have been purpose made for the object. Finally, the whole is set off with a carved jade finial...
