Subject:A Pair (2) of Blue Gilt Cong-Shaped Chinese Guangxu Marked Vases
Posted By: Abraham G Fri, Feb 20, 2015 IP: 172.56.33.149 I inherited these among other pieces. I've done my research, and they appear to be correct Mark and Period. Anyone who is experienced in Chinese Porcelain, I would greatly appreciate your input! |

Posted By: Bill H Wed, Feb 25, 2015 Abraham, I'll chime in on Tony's observations with photos of another fanghu that has famille rose decoration added over an original teadust glaze. This was a somewhat unsuccessful combination, because the high-fired iron-based teadust glaze was too hard for the add-on famille rose pigments to vitrify properly without pushing kiln temperature past the point where these enamels would begin to fry. Consequently, quite a bit of fritting developed in parts of the added decoration. Some of the ragged edges in the motif on your cong vase may have been due to the same sort of problem in reconciling kiln temperatures for the add-on enamels. |
