Hello everybody,
Can someone tell me the age of the miniature garniture? the height is about 8cm I think. I personally think they are at least 19th century, but I'm not very experienced in aging.
Please upload closeups of one or two items.
See http://discussion.chinese-antique-porcelain.com/taking_pictures.pdf for size, to allow for more detailed close viewing.
Thanks for the reply, will this do?
Considering the shape/proportions of these items and size, as well as the relatively crude painting style I would think they could be from the late Qing dynasty or early republic. Purpose unknown, but if used in China these could have been placed on an altar. My personal view...
Thanks for the reply! I also found a similar garniture at an auction, and that one was also dater 19th century, so I assume this is the right century indeed. It was sold for about 20 dollars I believe, is the economical value really low? Because these are quite rare for as far as I know
