Subject:Red chinese seal on small tea? pot painted with Salmon fish

Posted By: Bill H Mon, Dec 05, 2016 Your teapot probably dates from the first to second quarter of the 20th century or somewhat later. Traditionally in China, the motif of ornamental carp with their fry amidst water weed is iconic of happy and fruitful marriage. One artist working during that period and widely imitated was Deng Bishan (1874-1930). The link included herewith shows similar porcelain decoration from an earlier thread. |

Posted By: rat Mon, Dec 12, 2016 There are indeed scholarly articles on air bubbles in porcelain glazes, you'd have to consult specialist books and journals (eg Artibus Asiae, etc) for them though. |
