Finest Chinese Porcelain Falangcai Enamel Plate Birds Blossoms Republic ROC 20c
Located in Richmond, CA
Presenting an exceptional Chinese Falangcai enamel plate, a tour de force of ceramic artistry that seamlessly blends the intricate detailing of Fencai with the vibrant hues of Falangcai enameling. This plate is a sublime example of the "Fan Qiang" (over wall) technique, a masterful application that allows the depicted scene to transcend the back of the plate and extend into its front, creating a visually immersive experience.
The focal point of this plate is a meticulously rendered vibrant garden scene, where two birds are perched in a blossoming tree. The birds, captured in a moment of serene interaction, are set against a backdrop of blossoming branches, adding layers of symbolism and aesthetic appeal. The garden setting further enhances the naturalistic theme, imbuing the piece with a sense of tranquility and harmony.
The plate is finely detailed, employing a combination of Fencai and Falangcai enameling techniques to achieve a rich, multi-layered visual effect. The colors are vibrant yet balanced, capturing the essence of the scene with a remarkable degree of realism.
Adding to its historical and collectible value is an apocryphal six-character vertical mark "Da Qing Yong Zheng...

Vintage Chinese Finely Carved Yellow Pixiu Archaic Dragon Seal w/Stand 20th Cent
Located in Richmond, CA
This vintage Chinese seal is an exquisite example of craftsmanship, intricately carved to feature a Pixiu, the legendary son of the dragon, perched majestically atop a square mound. The Pixiu is vividly depicted, complete with water flowing from its mouth and eyes that bulge with mythical intensity. Pixiu is considered a creature of wealth and is believed to have the power to attract and protect its owner's fortunes. It is often used in Feng Shui for this purpose. Pixiu figures are often used as talismans or ornaments to attract wealth and good fortune.
The square mound itself serves as a canvas for archaic decorations, featuring stylized dragons that are intricately carved into the detailed ground. These dragons not only add aesthetic appeal but also imbue the piece with historical and cultural significance, linking it to ancient Chinese traditions and folklore.
What elevates this seal further is the material's yellow hue, which displays characteristics of the highly prized field yellow "Tian Huang...

Large Chinese Natural Translucent Untreated Jadeite Flower Cat Birds Carving 20c
Located in Richmond, CA
This modern Chinese sculpture, standing at an impressive 10 inches on its stand, is a masterful representation of contemporary jadeite craftsmanship, particularly from the renowned Suzhou tradition. Carved from natural, untreated jadeite, the sculpture presents a captivating scene of a blooming flower, complete with two small birds perched atop and a preying feline lurking beneath the intricately carved canopy of leaves and petals.
The jadeite material selected for this piece is of exceptional quality, exhibiting a pale celadon green hue that is both translucent and rich in lustre, reminiscent of the finest examples of jadeite. The translucency of the material enhances the sculpture's visual appeal, allowing light to filter through and illuminate the delicate details of the carving, while the wet lustre finish adds a sense of depth and vibrancy to the piece.
The scene depicted is one of natural harmony and beauty, yet it is imbued with the dynamic tension of the natural world, as evidenced by the presence of the preying feline. This juxtaposition adds a layer of narrative depth to the sculpture, making it not just a decorative item but a work of art that tells a story.
Crafted with the fine modern techniques of Suzhou jadeite craftsmanship, this sculpture is a testament to the skill and artistry of contemporary jade carvers, who continue to uphold the rich traditions of Chinese jade carving...
