Chinese Porcelain Famille Verte Large "Flower Basket" Dish, Kangxi Period
Located in Downingtown, PA
Vibrant Prosperity: A Famille Verte 'Flower Basket' Dish from the Kangxi Golden Age
This magnificent Chinese Export porcelain dish, dating to the height of the Kangxi Period (c. 1700-1710), is a resplendent example of the famed famille verte (green family) palette. This enameling technique, characterized by its brilliant, translucent greens, yellows, and blues, reached its zenith under the patronage of the Kangxi Emperor, ushering in a golden age of ceramic production at the imperial kilns in Jingdezhen (Guest and Gray).
Auspicious Symbolism and Design Mastery
The dish is a feast of intricate design and rich symbolism, centered on an openwork beribboned basket of peony and lotus flowers. The flower basket motif is highly auspicious in Chinese art, being one of the attributes of the Daoist Immortal Lan Caihe, and symbolizes longevity and good fortune (Sotheby's, Lot 657, 2015). This meaning is powerfully reinforced by the inclusion of a central shou character (寿) in the basket, the Chinese ideograph for Longevity, a core wish in Chinese culture for a long, healthy, and prosperous life (Metropolitan Museum of Art). The presence of the shou character, often incorporated into designs for Imperial birthday celebrations during this era, underscores the dish's grand and celebratory intent.
The radial design radiates outward with petal-shaped reserves in the cavetto, each containing detailed flowering plants issuing from rockwork, all set against a signature pale-green stippled ground (Dizi). The border completes the composition with an ornate pattern of green trellis-work punctuated by iron-red flower heads, alternating with oval panels containing various Precious Objects (Ba Gu), further emphasizing wealth and good fortune.
This large dish, at over 14 inches in diameter, was one of the exquisite items commissioned for the European export market, particularly by the Dutch East India Company (VOC), where its vibrant colors and complex iconography were highly prized by wealthy clientele (Guest and Gray). The reverse, painted in underglaze blue with delicate floral sprays, maintains a link to the more traditional Chinese aesthetic. This piece is a tangible embodiment of the technical sophistication and artistic brilliance that made Kangxi famille verte porcelain...

Persian Isfahan Solid Silver Tray
Located in Tarzana, CA
A mid 20th century Persian Isfahan solid silver wall plaque or tray of rectangular form. This is a stunning piece of artwork. The tray also features the artist's name, which adds a personal touch and showcases their craftsmanship.
One of the most captivating aspects of this tray is its hand-chased decoration depicting Achaemenid figures and winged sphinxes. The Achaemenid Empire was an ancient Persian civilization that existed from the 6th to 4th century BCE, famous for its architectural marvels such as the city of Persepolis. The presence of Achaemenid figures on the tray suggests a tribute to this rich historical era.
The winged sphinxes, on the other hand, add a touch of intrigue and mysticism to the design. Depicted with elegance and intricacy, these mythical creatures symbolize power, wisdom, and protection, drawing inspiration from ancient Egyptian, Greek, and Persian cultures.
The hand-chased technique used to create the decoration on the tray involves hammering and shaping the metal surface, creating intricate patterns and designs. This meticulous craftsmanship gives the tray a sense of uniqueness and exclusivity, as each detail is carefully shaped by the artist's skilled hands.
Overall, the combination of the Achaemenid figures and winged sphinxes on this Isfahan silver tray...
