2 Chinese porcelain small dolls house vases, a pair – China – Kangxi period 17th Century
On offer are 2 small Kangxi period dolls house vases from Chinese porcelain with Archaic floral decorations all around, offered as a pair! Both have decorated petals raising from the bottom. Identical dolls house vases like these ones have been found in the Vung Tau cargo, coming from a ship heading to Batavia but sunken nearby Vung Tau in Vietnam in the late 17th Century. These both offered vases are not from that cargo. Rare pair in excellent condition! Provenance: From a private collection in Leeuwarden, the Netherlands.
About; These 2 vases are typical Kangxi period examples, highly collectable by wealthy ladies in the West, into the first quarter of the 18t century. Those miniatures were collected to put them into dolls houses nor rarity cabinets. Some dolls houses survived including the puppets and small vases and other house hold items (Schloss Arnstadt, Germany). However, some experts on Chinese porcelain believe that they were also given to the VOC merchants to take back home, as examples of what could be made (in real size) in China! A rare and interesting object! Provenance: From our own private collection.
Date: Kangxi period 1662-1722 ca. 1690.
Size: They both measure ca. 4,5 cm in height and 2cm across.
Condition: Both in excellent condition! No damage. No frits, no chips, no hairlines, no repair!
Will be packed very well and shipped with registered track/trace with insurance. Combined shipping possible, we return postage costs.
