Description
AN ARCHAISTIC LONGQUAN TRIPOD CENSER, MING DYNASTY
China, 1368-1644. The heavily potted vessel is covered by an unctuous celadon glaze with fine crackling. The well and base are unglazed, revealing the buff-colored ware. The outside is covered with three rows of raised horizontal flanges.
Provenance: Purchased from Malcolm Clarke in 1994, the original invoice is accompanying this lot. From the Collection of The Late Brian and Josie Lister, The Old Rectory, Widdington, United Kingdom, and thence by descent. Brian Lister (1926 – 2014) was one of Britain’s greatest racing car builders. From its inception in 1954, Lister quickly became a benchmark for the front-engine sports racing car. The Lister ‘Knobbly’, as it was known, had few competitors.
Condition: Excellent condition with some wear, firing flaws, pitting and traces of use. One microscopic chip to foot.
