Very Fine Qianlong Chinese Export Porcelain Blue And White Helmet Shaped Jug
Item History & Price
This is a super Chinese export porcelain helmet shaped jug. It stands 14cm tall to the tip of the handle and is15cm from handle to spout 7cm wide. It is nicely hand painted with a Chinoiserie garden scene with pagodas and people on a bridge. The inside rim and the foot rim are both intricately decorated with a floral pattern. It is a great example of a shape that was popular from the mid to the late 18th century.
The jug is in good condition. The only flaws are some very minor chips... to the foot. I think there are seven of these in total and most are just a millimetre or so in size. I have shown these small flaws in the photos. Please study the photos carefully to satisfy yourself with the condition of the piece.
