$75 USDLarge Chinese Export Singerie Figure. Monkey Holding a Turnip
Collectibles:Decorative Arts:Chinoiserie:Oriental:Chinese:China:Statue:Figurine
This large figure measures almost 14" tall, 9" across at the widest part and about 6" in diameter at the base. While we will not label it as porcelain, it is of a dense and fine clay and weighs a heavy 6 1/2 pounds. The style is referred to as 'singerie' ('monkey trick' in French); "Monkeys attired in clothing and mimicking humans in their activities". This motif has been used throughout history and was especially popular in the Rococo Era of the 18th century. As for the subject matter, we are ...

$65 USDGorgeous Clay Art Mask in Black and Green. See Special Offer Below.
Collectibles:Decorative Arts:Mask:Mardi Gras:Clay Art
We love these wonderful ceramic masks made by Clay Art of San Francisco in the 1980's. This one is especially beautiful and measures about 16" tall by 9" wide. The hand painted porcelain complexion is highlighted by dramatic green and mauve eye shadow, soft pink full lips and blushed cheeks. The pill box 'hat' is made of dark green and black brocade and embellished with a black fabric rose and gilded braid. Topped off with shiny black feathers that drape down to frame the lovely face. In ...

Collectibles:Decorative Arts
These masks made by Clay Art are becoming quite collectible and it's no wonder; they are lovely. This example is the face of a Geisha with raven black hair adorned with an interesting dark red and aqua headpiece. Two double strands of burgundy silk flowers hang from each side. The tie is made up of three ribbons; burgundy, black and dark blue. Her creamy complexion is accented with mauve and green highlighting. This is in excellent condition with very few of the craze lines commonly found on ...
$25 USDLovely Clay Art Mask in a Mask in Shades of Pink and Purple. See Special Offer Below
Collectibles:Decorative Arts:Mask:Mardi Gras:Clay Art
Another beautiful example of the ceramic masks make by Clay Art in the 1980's. Measures 8 1/2" in both height and width and is in very nice condition with no chips or cracks but exhibits the fine crazing that these often develop. Hand painted in shade of lavender, pink and teal and studded with white dots around the eye cutouts of the petal-shaped mask. The pink, green and gold ribbon streamers are threaded through holes on each side and knotted and act as the hanger. Incised on reverse; "Clay ...
$120 USDLovely Oval Papier Mache Serving Tray
Collectibles:Decorative Arts:Paper
This beautiful tray measures 18" from handle to handle and is 12 1/2" wide with a 3/4" lip. A spray of stylized pink roses and other florals in gold and blue sits on a ochre background and is surrounded by a black cartouche embellished with gold scrollwork. Smaller bouquets are sprinkled around the inside of the curving lip and onto the handles. This was made of molded paper or papier mache. All of the scrolled areas are slightly raised and this was accomplished with the mold. It was then hand ...
$100 USDLarge and Intriguing Chalk Statue from Florence Art Co.
Collectibles:Decorative Arts:Plaster:Chalkware:Figure:Figurine
The Florence Art Company was founded in 1916 by immigrants from Tuscany who, in the early 50's, merged with New Italian Art to become The Florence and New Italian Art Company. They are still in business in San Francisco and produce garden art and statuary. We have written to them in hopes of finding out more about this piece. It is marked "Florence Art" so we assume that it was made prior to the merger. Measuring 30" tall and weighing about 20#, this lady is impressive. Her robes and the cactus ...
$100 USD SaleSALE Ornate Brass Tobacco Box with Islamic Design
Collectibles:Decorative Arts:Tobacciana:Vanity:Persia
I tried to decipher the etching on the back of this old brass box and came up with 'Syria' which makes sense as I believe the characters are Islamic. This measures 4 3/4" by 3 1/4" by 2" high and is lined with cedar which hints at the probably use for this. The intricate strap hinges are intact as is the locking strap which fits over a small rotating tang. There are spots of wear to the brass finish on this and darkening around the hinge plates, otherwise in lovely and sound condition. Dates to ...
$15 USD SaleSALE Lovely Asian Motif Tin Powder Box
Collectibles:Decorative Arts:Chocolate Box:Candy:Trinket:Vanity:Box
This little tin powder or trinket box is so cute...so colorful and such a pleasing shape. Measuring 6 1/4" x 4 1/4" x 4 1/8" tall, the removable lid has a round wooden handle which is slightly askew. No dents on this but quite a bit of paint wear, mostly around the handle and edges. Luckily the beautiful Asian style bird and flower design remains bright and colorful on all four sides of the lid. Bottom is oxidized and engraved; "Container made in England". The gold washed interior is heavily ...
$45 USDLovely Wooden Hinged Box. Hand Painted with Charming Florals. Not Shabby & Tres Chic!
Collectibles:Decorative Arts:Vanity:Florentine:Desk Accessories:Hankerchief
This nice solid bent wood box measures 8 1/2" long, 5" wide and 2 12" tall and is in wonderful condition. Although it is unmarked we imagine that it is an example of the so-called 'Florentine' work that was imported from Italy and especially popular in the mid 20th Century. A rather unusual example, if this is the case, so we will allow it to speak for itself. Its pleasing shape and expertly hand painted posies on the lid make this an especially charming piece. The perimeter of the 'antiqued' ...| Items 1 - 10 of 10 | Page 1 of 1 |
