Lot details

China, 1662-1722. The shallow sides rising from a short and slightly tapering foot to a wide everted lobed rim, the interior painted with a central roundel enclosing prunus blossoms and a butterfly, along with craggy rockwork and grass, the rim with a band repeating the motif, the exterior rim with flowers on leafy branches.

Provenance: Holzapfel collection, Geneva, Switzerland. The greater part of the Holzapfel Oriental Ceramics collection was formed in England and Ireland in the late 1950s and 1960s. After the death of Mr. Holzapfel, most of his pieces went to his children, ten in all. Two of Mr. Holzapfel's eldest sons then started their own collections in the early 1970s, both by adding significantly to their shares of the inheritance. Collecting was eventually continued by one of Mr. Holzapfel’s grandsons, who lives in Switzerland and is a member of the Oriental Ceramic Society. This lot was acquired by second generation members of the Holzapfel family circa between 1970 and 2005 and has remained in the family ever since.
Condition: Good condition with old wear and firing flaws, including kiln grit, glaze recesses, pitting, and dark spots, small frits to the mouth and foot rim, one chip to the rim with short associated hairline and old kintsugi repair, shallow surface scratches.

Your bid limit will be the maximum amount you can bid during the auction. Your bid limit is for the hammer price and is not affected by the buyer’s premium and VAT.  For example, if you have a bid limit of €1,000 and place two winning bids for €300 and €200, then you will only be able to bid €500 for the rest of the auction.
