STUNNING ANTIQUE CHINESE QING CLOISONNE TEAPOT JADE PLAQUES / PENDANTS & FINIAL
I will be selling a good number of interesting antiques this week including Tribal art, Chinese, Japanese and European antiques. PLEASE NOTE: This sale is in GB Pounds Sterling.

This is a very fine piece of Chinese cloisonne. It is a 19th Century teapot or ewer with gilt metal embellishments, cloisonne designs including bats and auspicious symbols, a jade finial to the lid and well carved white / celadon jade plaques to each side. It dates to the 19th Century and would undoubtedly make an excellent addition to a collection of Chinese works of art. The last photo below shows the teapot alongside some of the other items of Chinese interest I am selling separately in other sales this week so please view my other sales. I am selling it at a very low starting price and with . My computer is very colour accurate but please bear in mind that your screen may show the colour of the stone slightly differently.

It is my policy not to end standard sales early with a \'buy it now\' and at the end of an sale I will not make second chance offers. Please read down the entire listing for Dimensions, Condition, Postage & Payment Details - most of the information you will need is here on this page but please get in touch if you don\'t find what you are looking for. Condition & DimensionsGood overall condition. One or two flaws in the cloisonne (I will attach some additional photos) the jade finial to the lid has been chipped at the very top and the jade plaques appear to have been fairly clumsily glued into place. But all in all for such a fragile piece it is in very good shape. Other general wear as per the photos below.

It stands just under 28cms tall. The jade roundels measure about 5.5cms in diameter.

Postage & PackingFor your peace of mind and mine items will be sent fully insured. I will be posting TUESDAY 8TH to THURSDAY 10TH MAY so please make payment as early as possible, ideally within 3 working days. PLEASE be a little patient with the post - I will get them posted asap but I work on my own, have a large amount to post and I do pack carefully. I also post in the order that things are paid for. My items are located in Belgium but I return to the UK after each set of sales on business trips and post the majority from the UK. It seems complicated but it makes sense and the Royal Mail and Parcelforce have always worked pretty well for me!

Any delays by the postal services either at my end or abroad are rarely my fault. I always post out at the latest 3 working days after receiving cleared payment but sometimes an item is slowed up by a backlog of post or delayed whilst being processed through customs. To give you an idea it generally takes about 3-7 working days within Europe and 7 - 14 working days to the U.S. / rest of the world. If speed is of the essence then I can use a courier (Parcelforce) but prices for couriers start at around £30 / £40GBP for the very smallest object and VERY quickly escalate depending on size, weight and destination. I add on very little, often not enough to cover the packaging materials, so the price I quote really is as fair as possible.

Please find attached below and additional image of the jade finial. I believe that this chip could be polished down by a professional so that it is not noticed. Many thanks, Rob.
