Chinese porcelain Yuan dynasty vase, Tang poet Li Bai
Low Estimate: 15,000High Estimate: 50,000Original
Chinese porcelain Yuan dynasty Chizhou vase with TANG poet Li Bai ; The image represents the famous Tang dynasty poet - Li Bai - ; The inscription says when Li was drunk, he would write many poems. Height: 9.8 in = 25 cm; Weight: approx. 3 lb. = 1415 g = 1 kg 415 g; Provenance: from private collection in New York, USA; References: Li Bai (701[1]762), also known as Li Po, was a Chinese poet acclaimed from his own day to the present as a genius and romantic figure who took traditional poetic forms to new heights. He and his friend Du Fu (712770) were the two most prominent figures in the flourishing of Chinese poetry in the mid-Tang Dynasty that is often called the "Golden Age of China".Around a thousand poems attributed to him are extant, thirty-four in the canonical 18th-century anthology Three Hundred Tang Poems. The poems were models for celebrating the pleasures of friendship, the depth of nature, solitude, and the joys of drinking wine. Among the most famous are "Waking from Drunkenness on a Spring Day", "The Hard Road to Shu", and "Quiet Night Thought", which appears frequently in school texts in China today. Legend holds that Li drowned when he reached from his boat to grasp the moons reflection in the river. The Yuan dynasty (12061368)While the Mongol occupation destroyed much, it also shook China free from the static traditions and techniques of the late Southern Song and made possible many innovations, both in painting and in the decorative arts. The north was not progressive, and the main center of pottery activity shifted permanently to the south. The northern traditions of Jun and Cizhou ware continued through the Jin and Yuan, bolder but coarser than before. New shapes included a heavy, wide-mouthed jar, sometimes with decoration boldly carved through a black or brown slip or painted in two or three colours. These new techniques and the overglaze painting already developed in the Jin dynasty prepared the way for the three- and five-colour wares of the Ming.

Chinese, Jun ware porcelain Gu-vase, Jin/Yuan(?)18.7 cm
Low Estimate: 500High Estimate: 25,000
Chinese, Jun kiln ware porcelain Gu-shaped vase, Jin/Yuan dynasty (1115-1368)? Weight: 3 lb. = 1,350 g; Height: 7.5 inches = 18.7 cm; Upper diameter: 6 inches = 15.3 cm; Condition: very fine, no cracks or chips; Estimate: $2,000 - $20,000; Provenance: from private collection in USA; Age and authenticity: Style and shape of Jin/Yuan dynasty (1115-1368). This vase needs a thermolumenscent test in order to verify a real age. Until then, Jin/Yuan dynasty is only our opinion, but not a guarantee of authenticity. References: Jun ware (Chinese: ; WadeGiles: Chün) is a type of Chinese celadon. The use of straw ash in the glaze bestows its unique blue glaze suffused with white. The ware was created near Linru County in the province of Henan at the Jun kilns of Yuzhou City during the Northern Song dynasty (9601126) to the Jin dynasty (11151234) and Yuan dynasty (12711368). The Chinese character for Jun became incorporated in local place names only as late as 1368. There is no mention of the kilns of Jun ware in written sources from the Song to Yuan dynasties. A black ware with spots was produced at the Xiaobai Valley in the Tang dynasty and can be considered the precursor of Jun ware. Jun celadon closely resembles Jun official celadon with its multiple layers of blue glaze. The kiln sites of both wares were geographically near one another as well. The Jun glaze included blue-gray, sky-blue, moon-white, red and purple, the most prized have crimson or purple splashes. Varying the temperature of the kilns changed color tints, a technique known as yaobian. The foot of the later period ware is usually unglazed and brown; the rim of bowls can also be brown or greenish where the glaze is thinner. Song period examples display a careful finishing with glaze inside the foot. Naturally Song shapes are crisp and thinner than later Jin and Yuan examples. There is a great variety of shapes such as bowls, dishes and flowerpots. Narcissus bowls were often numbered and whose refinement suggests a connection with Jun official ware. Other extant examples of Jun ware display inscriptions on their bases that resemble other palace wares of the period. The numbers from one to ten are perhaps indications of size. The ware experiences a fall in quality into the Jin period. Later, in the Yuan dynasty, Jun ware production spread to other kiln sites in Henan, Hebei and Shanxi provinces, although Yuzhou City was the prime area for Jun ware production. Investigations of Jun ware kiln sites began in 1951 under Chen Wanli of the Palace Museum. A hundred kiln sites were subsequently discovered. A major report appeared in the journal Historical Relic in 1964.

That was considered not as a forgery, but rather appreciation of the old masters.This vase is contradictable and the research is not finished. The thermo luminescent test was not done, because it is not statistically proven for the age less than 250-300 years. All the potential buyers are strongly advised to consult their agents and seek advice from the specialists before making their bids.Thank you for understanding!

His reign, from 1861 to 1875, which effectively lasted through his adolescence, was largely overshadowed by the rule of his mother Empress Dowager Cixi. Although he had little influence over state affairs, the events of his reign gave rise to what historians call the "Tongzhi Restoration", an unsuccessful attempt to stabilize and modernize China.
