The greater part of the Holzapfel Oriental Ceramics collection was formed in England and Ireland in the late 1950s and 1960s. After the death of Mr. Holzapfel, most of his pieces went to his children, ten in all. Two of Mr. Holzapfel's eldest sons then started their own collections in the early 1970s, both by adding significantly to their shares of the inheritance. Collecting was eventually continued by one of Mr. Holzapfel's grandsons, who lives in Switzerland and is a member of the Oriental Ceramic Society. This lot was acquired by Mr. Holzapfel before 1970 and has been in the Holzapfel family ever since.Condition: Extensive wear and firing flaws, including firing cracks, dark spots, kiln grit, fritting, and glaze recesses, several cracks to the exterior and interior, the rim and neck with three old fills, all well visible on images, no hidden damages.Weight: 4,750 gDimensions: Height 15 cm, Diameter 33.2 cm13% VAT will be added to the hammer price additional to the buyer's premium – only for buyers within the EU.萬曆青花太獅三足香爐中國,1573-1620年。縮頸,鼓腹,三獸面足,邊緣寬闊且外翻,描繪三隻太獅,纏枝紋,假山,蟬紋,底足未上釉區經過燒製變成橙色。來源:瑞士日內瓦Holzapfel收藏。 Holzapfel 東方陶瓷收藏的大部分藏品是在1950年至1960年代在英國和愛爾蘭成立的。Holzapfel老先生去世後,他的大部分藏品都交給了他的十個孩子。Holzapfel先生年長的兩個孩子隨後於1970年代初開始了自己的收藏,都擴大了從遺產得到的收藏。Holzapfel先生的孫子之一他目前居住在瑞士,是東方陶瓷協會的成員,他最終延續了收藏工作。 此拍品是Holzapfel先生1970年前收藏的,在家族世代相傳至今。圖片:Holzapfel老先生 品相:廣泛磨損和燒制缺陷,包括燒制裂紋、黑斑、窯渣和釉料凹陷,外部和內部的多個裂紋,邊緣和頸部有三處舊的填充物 。重量:4,750 克尺寸:高15 厘米, 直徑33.2 厘米
