Ian Finer is a London-based Chartered Accountant whose professional work advising clients in the antiques trade fostered a deep personal engagement with Asian art. Over several decades he assembled a highly regarded private collection of Chinese bronzes and porcelains. At its core were refined works, notably by the famed metalworker Hu Wenming and other scholars' studio pieces. Finer's collection, which he carefully curated from important auction houses, collectors, and dealers, was recognized for its museum-quality breadth and scholarly focus. Condition: Very good condition with minor wear, casting irregularities, tiny nicks, few dents, lights scratches, and traces of use.Weight: 539 g Dimensions: 8.9 cmHu Wenming (1573-1620) is one of the most renowned metalworkers in Chinese history and one of the few whose name and style are discussed in Chinese art-historical writing. Originally from Yunjian (present-day Songjiang near Shanghai), he became one of the most accomplished craftsmen of the late Ming dynasty. Most of the works attributed to Hu Wenming are scholarly objects, such as incense burners and brush pots, characterized by densely worked backgrounds covered with naturalistic and other motifs cast in high relief. His work was highly regarded by the educated elite of the wealthy in the Jiangnan region (lower Yangzi delta).Auction result comparison:Type: Closely relatedAuction: Sotheby's London, 10 November 2010, lot 21Price: GBP 6,000 or approx.
