The complex layering of forms matches the style of Chinese lacquers and jades dating to the early Ming period. An almost identical box, now in the Nezu Museum, Tokyo, however, bears an inscription by the Japanese lacquer artist Yozei stating he was imitating the work of the Chinese fourteenth-century master Zhang Cheng. Whether this piece proves to be a Chinese original or an unsigned Japanese copy, the extraordinary carving distinguishes the box as an excellent example of cultural exchange between China and Japan during the fifteenth century..

Although fine ceramics are known from the region as early as AD 800, the distinctive engraved vessels with swirling and cross-hatched designs emerged after AD 1400. This finely burnished and carefully engraved bowl is in a style sometimes called Friendship Engraved. View more. Engraved Bowl. Ancestral Caddoan. 15th century. Clay. United States, Arkansas.

The striking geometric design is achieved by applying black and white slip over a red ware. Four circular "bull's eye" designs were painted below the interior rim. View more. Bowl.

The fabric of the bowl is the enamel itself which is held in place during firing by a thin sheet of gold that is later removed.Thesmar executed many small bowls of this type between 1891-1903. All are evocative of Islamic style, relating this group more closely to the Near Eastern-inspired glass of his contemporary Philippe-Joseph Brocard (died 1896) than to his own work in cloisonné enamels..

Pinto Collection - Purchased from Edward H Pinto, 1965.. Made in Scotland. This is a very rare nest of bickers made in Scotland in the 18th century. Bickers were traditional Scottish drinking vessels and as shown in this nest, they were made in a variety of sizes.It was said that a skilled craftsman was able to make a bicker using only a knife. It was made of alternate sycamore and alder staves which fitted together with a series of small feather like notches. The whole vessel was then held in place with willow bands which were carefully laced together. A dried pea was inserted into a false base in the largest bicker, so that the cup rattled when a top up was required.Top of a Papyrus Stalk Mirror Handle ca. 1390-1353 B.C. New Kingdom.
