Lot details

China. The globular body rising from a slightly splayed foot to a tall cylindrical neck, the opaque cobalt-blue glass suffused with paler swirls.

Provenance: The Ann and Gordon Getty Collection, no. 1994-182 (according to label on base). Spink and Son, London, 1994. The Plesch Collection of Ancient Glass, no. Gu-30A, acquired from the above. Sotheby's New York, Important Chinese Art, 21 March 2018, lot 662, sold for USD 16,250. An institutional collection in Illinois, USA, acquired from the above. Peter and Traudi Plesch were both refugees from Nazi persecution. Peter had left Germany with his father, who was the medical doctor of Albert Einstein, who once gently commented on the practical difficulties of young Peter's ingenious design for a perpetual motion machine. Peter Plesch had already formed a fine collection when he met Traudi. One influence had been his maternal great uncle, Fritz von Gans, who had left his antiquities collection to the Royal Prussian Museum, Berlin. However, on their honeymoon in Israel, Traudi fell for the lure of ancient Chinese glass which inspired a new joint adventure, the one criterion for a purchase being that she and Peter should both want the object, although not necessarily with the same passion. Thus their collection was formed slowly and wisely over four decades, later expanding into jades and ancient bronzes, reflecting their desire to have beautiful, but also academically meaningful pieces.
Condition: Very good condition with minor wear and manufacturing irregularities. The foot and mouth with small nicks, mostly inherent to the manufacture of this piece, see detail images on www.zacke.at.

Weight: 1,939 g
Dimensions: Height 29.5 cm

Auction result comparison: Compare a closely related opaque blue glass bottle vase, though with a Qianlong mark, at Christie’s Hong Kong in The Imperial Sale & Important Chinese Ceramics and Works of Art on 3 June 2015, lot 3263, sold for HKD 500,000.
