拍品描述 翻译
China, Zhejiang province, circa 8th century. The vase with a bulbous body raised on a spreading foot and rising to a long neck with everted mouth, a chilong dragon encircling the neck covered in a brown glaze, and the body covered in an iridescent green glaze. Provenance: Dutch trade. Acquired from an old private collection in the Netherlands. Condition: Good condition, commensurate with age, with significant ancient wear, some flaking and natural deterioration to the glaze, a small chip to the mouth, some glaze oxidation, and expected firing flaws such as glaze recesses, pitting, and crackling. Two minuscule fills to base.Weight: 253 g Dimensions: Height 16.8 cmDid you know?Vases like the current lot, featuring plain bodies with an applied dragon or lizard motif around the neck and shoulder, date back to at least the 8th century. Known as 'chilong vases', their popularity continued through the Song, Ming and Qing Dynasties, with versions replicated in various materials from bronze to jade, and even examples commissioned by emperors. See, for example, a teadust-glazed chilong vase of related form, with a Qianlong mark and of the period, 15.1 cm high, at Christie's Hong Kong, 29 November 2024, lot 1404. Zhejiang pottery stands as a cornerstone of Chinese ceramic artistry, evolving over millennia from utilitarian vessels to masterpieces of beauty and innovation. Home to iconic kilns like Yue and Longquan, the region's potters excelled in crafting wares that balanced functionality with aesthetic sophistication. From the proto-porcelain and iridescent green glazes of the Han and subsequent dynasties to the refined celadons of the Tang and Song dynasties, Zhejiang ceramics were celebrated for their jade-like glazes and elegant forms. These pieces not only met domestic needs but also became prized exports, spreading the artistry of Zhejiang throughout Asia and beyond.Zhejiang jars decorated with dragon sculptures had been used as funeral objects since the Han dynasty and served as a source of inspiration for the present lot. This style, with dragons placed around the neck of the jar, spread rapidly from north of Zhejiang (see CGK Zenshu 1981 vol. 4: 136-140) southward during the Tang dynasty. Such jars continued to be made for centuries in Jiangxi, Fujian, Guangxi, and Guangdong, and were even exported to Southeast Asia until the Ming dynasty.The iridescent green glaze, a key feature of Zhejiang pottery, has a rich and varied history, starting in the Han dynasty with early experiments in iron oxide glazes. While the most iconic green glaze of the region, often linked with Longquan celadon, became renowned in the Tang and Song dynasties, its origins can be traced back to the Sui dynasty and even earlier. The green glaze evolved in its iridescent quality over time, becoming more refined and lustrous through the centuries. While the Han period saw some of the earliest iridescence due to burial conditions, it was during the Tang and later periods that the green glaze became more widely recognized for its beauty. Interestingly, during the Liao dynasty, a resurgence of green glazes occurred, although the Liao had no direct connection to the Zhejiang region. This shift suggests a broader regional appreciation for the aesthetic value of green glazes and highlights how ceramic styles influenced one another across China, regardless of geographic boundaries.Literature comparison: Compare a related green-glazed funerary jar applied with a dragon from Zhejiang province, dated to the Tang dynasty, 38.9 cm high, in the Asian Art Museum of San Francisco, object number B64P9. A Han dynasty vase applied with dragons in the Zhejiang Provincial Museum illustrates early experimentation with this type of decoration.
