Qing Dynasty, Kangxi reign, blue and white teapot with pine, bamboo and plum.

This teapot is cleverly made. The creator ingeniously incorporated the images of pine, bamboo and plum in the structure of the teapot. The trunk of the pine is shaped in three dimensions to form the handle of the teapot and connected with the branches on the body. Bas-relief bamboo joins are turned into the spout of the teapot, connecting with the bamboo branches on the body. Three-dimensional plum twigs serve as the lid and connect to the plum pattern on the lid. The pine, bamboo and plum are called in China “Three Friends in Winter.” Even in cold weather, they don’t wither and die. Chinese men of letters often refer to them as symbols of nobility, unyielding morality and character.

Qing Dynasty, Kangxi reign, blue and white bowl with cover, painted with farewell scene near the Hu(Tiger) Stream.

This work narrates a story in ancient times. An eminent monk lived in seclusion in the mountain. There was a stream named Hu near where he lived. He had a habit of never crossing the Hu Stream to see off his visitors. Once two great men of letters came to visit him. When the monk saw them off, he was very happy chatting with them on the road, and without thinking, he crossed the Hu Stream. The picture on the bowl is about this story on the bowl is about this story of friendship between learned men of letters and a hermit. The“dividing-water” technique was used in blue and white porcelain of the Qing Kangxi periodone color was separated into different shades, as expressive as ink and wash. The blue and white of this work is pretty and bright; it is called “king fi sher blue,” the highest level of blue and white. This is a rare Kangxi period piece.

清康熙年間，繪有“虎溪離別”的青花蓋碗。

這件蓋碗講述了一個(gè)古老的故事。一位高僧隱居在深山中，居所附近有一條虎溪，他從不曾越溪送客。一次，有兩位友人來(lái)看望他。送行時(shí)，高僧與友人邊走邊聊，沒(méi)想到竟越過(guò)虎溪。蓋碗上描繪的就是關(guān)于好學(xué)的訪(fǎng)客和隱士之間友誼的故事。

“分水”技術(shù)多用于清代康熙年間的青花瓷上，如同水墨的表現(xiàn)，一個(gè)顏色分成了不同的色調(diào)。這件青花作品為“翠鳥(niǎo)藍(lán)”，漂亮生動(dòng)，是青花中的最高級(jí)別。
