SHIPWRECk PORCELAIN

TEK SING On the evening of February 5th 1822, the three masted Chinese Junk known as the tek Sing, or ‘true Star’, under the command of Captain Io tauko, hit rocks twelve miles off the coast of Gaspar Island.

Of the almost 2,000 passengers and crew on board, more than 1,600 were to lose their lives, and the tek Sing is sometimes referred to as the titanic of the East due to this tragic loss of life.

It had been on the 14th January 1822 that the tek Sing had begun its fateful voyage from the Chinese port of Amoy (now xiamen) bound for Jakarta, carrying a vast cargo aimed at the wealthy Chinese community living in the Indonesian capital. the hold of the tek Sing was filled with a luxurious variety of items including silks and lacquer ware, Indian inks and writing paper, tortoiseshell, mother of pearl, bamboo furniture and valuable medicines. Also on board was a vast quantity of Chinese porcelain in a rich variety of forms and patterns, a remarkable cargo that was to survive the tragic sinking that befell the tek Sing just weeks after it set sail. this porcelain is now the legacy of a cargo that provides a unique snapshot of social history and academic interest that would otherwise have remained unknown, were it not for its discovery in 1999 by an Australian crew that included the renowned Shipwreck salvor Michael Hatcher. their complex salvage operation led to the recovery of a wealth of pieces, some of which Halls Fine Art are delighted to offer for sale here.

CA MAU

In 1725 a Chinese junk filed with export porcelain and sailing ninety miles south of Canton on its way to the Malaysian archipelago sank after apparently suffering an intense fire on-board which was so hot that it fused together some pieces of its precious cargo. This fire, burning at 1400 degrees Fahrenheit may have started in the kitchen as cast iron cooking pots were found melted together and it may have burned long enough for the crew to escape along with the ship’s seals.

The junk lay for over two hundred and eighty years without being discovered or disturbed until, in 1998, two Vietnamese fishermen snagged their nets on a quantity of Chinese porcelain and began to haul it from the deep. Before the Vietnamese Ministry of Culture and Information stepped in, the fishermen had managed to bring to the surface over thirty thousand pieces of porcelain. In 2005 the Vietnamese Government decided to sell a proportion of the overall 130,000 pieces of porcelain that had been salvaged and sent 76,000 to auction with Sotheby’s in Amsterdam in January 2007.

The shipwreck, the Ca Mau, finally unloaded its cargo to an eager market over three days in the Netherlands and the ring of commerce between East and West for this beautiful porcelain was sealed once more after a two century gap.

Shipwreck porcelains are a fascinating subject and shed much light on history, porcelain, human and marine archaeology and commerce. They represent in their purest form, a time capsule, sealing in the fashion of the day represented by the most popular shapes and designs. After the discovery of the Nanking Cargo by Michael Hatcher in the 1980’s there have been many shipwreck porcelain sales at auction, including Vung Tau, Tek Sing, Diana and of course, Ca Mau. The number of pieces offered have been breathtaking, usually 100,000 pieces or more per sale and reflect the size of these cargoes in their day and the demand for such wares throughout South East Asia and Europe.

A great deal of the cargo from the Ca Mau consisted of tea bowls, saucers and saucer dishes for the mass market. The majority were painted in cobalt blue against a white porcelain ground. Such tea bowls and saucers are ideal for collectors, being easy to display, relatively inexpensive and often displaying a myriad of different patterns.

In this sale Halls Fine Art offer dealers, connoisseurs and academics alike the opportunity once more to acquire a selection of these beautiful and delicate porcelain pieces being sold here by a Staffordshire vendor.

An automata figure of a bear playing a drum, 19th century. sold for £650

Asian Art 21st May – Sale Report As the first specialist sale of its kind to take place in the West Midlands and North of England, Halls Asian Art sale on 21st May lived up to expectations, delivering over 200 lots of Chinese, Japanese and Middle Eastern works to a rapidly growing market of collectors.

The intensity of interest was clear prior to sale day in the unprecedented amount of enquires received from all over the world, and the number of buyers registering to bid online. The well attended viewing days served to underline the international reach that Halls now commands in Asian art’s burgeoning market place, with interested collectors flying in from China and traveling up from London, where many had been partaking in Asian Art Week in the capital.

The sale started strongly as the first lot of the day, a Chinese Ding Yao bowl with silver mounted rim from the Song Dynasty, sold for a more than triple top estimate £16,000, followed by a second Ding Yao bowl at £10,000. Both pieces were sold on behalf of a private collector and had links to the prestigious Percival David and ET Chow collections, demonstrating the power of provenance when it comes to achieving the highest prices at auction. The ceramics section of the sale performed well in general, with lots consistently reaching four figures, including a distinctively shaped 19th century Chinese underglaze blue and copper red porcelain mallet vase at £2,500 and a Chinese blue and white ginger jar from the Qing dynasty which sold to a determined telephone bidder for £2,000.

The most unusual lot of the day was a one of a kind letter, written in part by Chinese Taiping Tianguo Emperor 洪 秀 全 (Hong Xiu Quan) and bearing the official wooden seal mark of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. The letter, dated 22nd November 1861, sparked great interest, finally selling for a hammer price of £12,000 after a frantic exchange that eventually saw a Taiwanese internet bidder win out.

Large butterscotch amber beads continued to prove a popular investment with Chinese and Middle Eastern buyers, with a graduated amber bead necklace, comprising twenty-three of the all-important butterscotch coloured amber beads, selling well at £13,000.

Japanese works of art, although seemingly overshadowed by recent interest in the Chinese market, performed solidly with a beautifully modelled figure of a Japanese bronze peacock dating from the mid Meiji period selling in the room for £2,600. Traditional Japanese woodblock prints also showed their enduring popularity, with a rare example by Kawase Hasui (1883-1957) titled 'Night Rain at Teradomari', from the Souvenirs of Travel 2nd Series c.1921, selling online for £800 to an American collector.
