清代一對廣東琺琅彩開光鎏金子母獅耳觀音尊
Sold for €13,904
including Buyer's Premium
China, 19th century. The baluster sides surmounted by a trumpet neck with wavy rim, applied with double gilt lion-cub handles and pairs of chilong on the shoulders, finely painted in bright enamels and gilt with shaped panels depicting court and nature scenes against a ground of scrolling vines and peony blossoms.
Provenance: From a German private collection.
Condition: Superb original condition with no restorations, hairlines, or cracks whatsoever. Wear to gilt, each vase with one small loss to one claw of one dragon, both with minor frits to relief applications. One of the hardwood bases with chips and losses, both bases with natural age cracks.
Weight: ca. 46 kg (the pair, excl. stands)
Dimensions: Height 89 cm (each)
Each vase with a matching, finely carved hardwood openwork base, most likely from the period. (4)
Expert’s note: A pair of very large Famille Verte vases such as the present lot, in well-preserved condition with enamels and gilding still so crisp and fresh, and with matching bases, must be considered as extremely rare.
Auction result comparison: Compare a closely related single Canton vase, also dated to the 19th century but of smaller size (81 cm high), at Christie’s Amsterdam in Asian Ceramics and Works of Art on 24 May 2006, lot 346, sold for EUR 9,000 (for a single vase). Compare a related pair of Canton vases, also dated to the 19th century but of smaller size (62.3 cm high) but with pink scroll handles, at Christie’s New York, in Mandarin & Menagerie: The Sowell Collection and Chinese Export Art From Various Owners, on 26 January 2015, lot 195, sold for USD 27,500 (for a pair). Compare a closely related pair (90 cm high) dated to the Daoguang period, at Bonhams Hong Kong, in Fine Chinese Ceramics, Works of Art and Paintings, on 26 November 2007, lot 5, bought-in at an estimate of HKD 300,000-400,000.

中國, 十九世紀。侈口，頸部較長，削肩，肩下弧線內收，淺圈足，瓶體修長，線條流暢。外壁開光描繪宮廷、自然風光與纏枝牡丹紋。鎏金雙耳為子母獅戲珠。
來源：德國私人收藏。
品相：極好的原始狀態，沒有任何修復、細紋或裂縫。 鎏金磨損，每個花瓶的小龍爪都有一個小缺損。兩個瓶子浮雕處都有輕微的熔塊。一個硬木底座有小磕損，兩種底座都有自然老化裂紋。
