Chinese decorative objects.
You can tell this is small, from the size of the threads in the fabric.
Tang Dynasty (618-906 C.E.), silver gilt.
Small, but not as small as the box.
Tang Dynasty (618-906 C.E.), cast and beaten silver.
A table leg from Jincun, Henan Province. Warring States period, 477-221 B.C.E.
The name of this glaze is "tea dust." Yongzhen period, 1723-1735.
Slices of stone, depicting the seasons. I didn't keep track, but I bet this one is Winter.
Qing Dynasty, 18th century. Yunnan province.
Another Guanyin. This one is quite small (compared to the ones I showed you yesterday). Less than a foot tall, if I remember correctly. I suspect this was devotional, as well as decorative.
We actually know who made this one! He Chaozong, "active 1665-1695." Porcelain.
Porcelain "famille verte" plate. Kangxi era (1662-1722), Qing Dynasty (1644-1911).
Glazed porcelain. Qing Dynasty (1644-1911).
