China, 12th-13th century or earlier. The lobed globular body raised on a slightly spreading foot and surmounted by a slender neck flanked by the graceful strap-handle and elegantly curved spout and terminating in a finely modeled chicken head with large round eyes and curved beak, the head and body neatly incised with feathers, covered overall in an olive-green glaze darkening in the recesses.Provenance: The E & J Frankel Collection, no. 1679 (label to the base), New York, 1998. The Betty Eisler Collection, New York, acquired from the above and thence by descent. A copy of the original signed invoice from E & J Frankel, dated 4 April 1998, addressed to Betty Eisler, describing the present lot as a 'Yueyao bird head ewer. Jin dynasty c. 900-1100. #1679', and stating a purchase price for the present lot of USD 3,600 or approx. EUR 6,800 (converted and adjusted for inflation at the time of writing), accompanies this lot. E & J Frankel was a major New York gallery specializing in Asian Art since 1967. Run by Edith (1939-2012) and Joel Frankel (1937-2018), it was one of the oldest galleries in the United States focusing exclusively on Asian art. Leaders in their field, the Frankels traveled the world in search of Asian art treasures and educated the general public about their shared passion. Their gallery on Madison Avenue in New York City became a local institution, best known for its regular schedule of innovative thematic exhibitions, and frequently visited by the biggest names in the field, such as Eskenazi, Ellsworth, Junkunc, and the Alsdorfs. Betty Ellen Eisler (1926-2023) was a proud-and-loud lifetime New Yorker and longtime fashion merchandising executive. After attending the Tobe-Coburn School for Fashion Careers, she worked for 35 years as a national buyer and merchandise manager. After she retired in 1989, she helped her cousin Harold Gottesman with his Manhattan Mini Storage business, where she developed and ran the collection process. She was an avid collector of antique Chinese ceramics and loved to travel. Pieces from her collection are now in the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Condition: Excellent condition with minor wear and firing irregularities including spur marks to the base.Weight: 192 g Dimensions: Height 14.1 cmLiterature comparison: Compare a closely related celadon-glazed ''parrot-head or phoenix-head'' ewer, dated 12th or 13th century, 14 cm high, in the Herbert F.
