Vung Tau Cargo C1690 Vietnamese Shipwreck Rare Guglet Vase Christies Provenance

£1,850    $2,403    €2,227
*Please Note. This price excludes the cost of postage which will be an additional £28.00 within the UK. Worldwide shipping available.*
 
The body is painted with four shaped panels containing peony sprays, the rest with various flowers and foliage. Although the top has been most professionally replaced, personally I would have left it alone as an honest piece with a missing top. It is quite surprising how many tops have been damaged or replaced throughout the hundreds of years. There is an artemisia leaf to the underside. A very nice and rare example.
 
There were only 12 of these available in the Christies Amsterdam sale of 1992
 
Size:19cm tall
 
Condition: Replacement of flaring top (see images), overall dulling of the glaze, one or two marks (please see the images/video for the best description and condition report)
 
Provence: Shipwreck items can be cross checked with the original auction catalogues, this piece relating to the Christie''s Amsterdam auction of 1992
 
Please Note. These are shipwreck items and have spent hundreds of years beneath the sea. This is reflected in dulling of the glaze where pieces have rubbed against the coral sands. Hairlines are expected and are quite common with this type of porcelain as are frits, crazing and pitting and areas of discolouration.
