A CLOISONNé ENAMEL WALL VASE, CHINA, 18th CENTURY

Of flattened form, the body supported on a short spreading foot atop a gilt-copper stepped stand raised on three ruyi-form feet and rising to a tall flared neck with a ribbed rim decorated with pendent ruyi heads, flanked by a pair of gilt-copper openwork chilong handles. Brightly enameled on a turquoise ground with a central lotus bloom borne on a leafy scroll surrounded by colorful tendrils, all between overlapping petal and stiff leaf lappet bands at the shoulder and lower body, respectively. The neck with plantain leaves, separated by ruyi heads, above a T-scroll band, below lotus scroll. The copper back with two pierced apertures.

Provenance: From the private collection of Sara Fredericks, probably acquired in New York during the 1960s, and thence by descent. Sara Fredericks (1903-1986) was a designer and a retailer who specialized in women’s luxury fashion for more than 50 years. After her marriage to Frederick Cohen, who was in the shoe business, she began selling dresses out of her home to women who admired her clothes. ''She lived the life her customers lived,'' said Pauline Trigere, who was among the designers who considered Miss Fredericks a friend as well as a client. Others in that category were Geoffrey Beene, James Galanos, Bill Blass, Oscar de la Renta, Bob Mackie, and Hubert de Givenchy. ''She had impeccable taste,'' Miss Trigere said, “her customers trusted her.”
Condition: Good condition with old wear and manufacturing irregularities including pitting. Tiny nicks and small dents. The foot and base loose, the screw still in place but the nut missing. Minor flaking and small losses to enamels, one with an old fill. For more details, please request a video of the wall vase shot under strong blue light directly from the department.

Weight: 413 g
Dimensions: Height 26 cm

Wall vases were particularly popular during the reign of Qianlong and are known to have adorned the walls of the Sanxitang (The Hall of Three Rarities), a tiny studio next to the Imperial bedchamber in the Yangxindian. They were produced in a variety of materials, including porcelain, cloisonne enamel and lacquer, and occasionally inscribed with poems by the Emperor himself, such as the present lot. Compare several porcelain wall vases in the collection of the Palace Museum Beijing, illustrated in The Life of Emperor Qianlong, The Macau Museum of Art, Macau, 2002, cat. nos. 63-2 to 63-9.
