Buyer's Premium:

An assortment of Chinese-style decorative items and tablewares. The collection includes a blue and white porcelain tea set comprising a teapot and six handleless cups, each decorated with transfer-printed dragon and cloud motifs and key-fret borders, housed in a red presentation box with a yellow satin-effect lining. Also included is a set of black chopsticks with gold-tone dragon designs and five polychrome ceramic rests modelled as mandarin ducks, presented in a boxed set. A vertical hanging scroll painting on paper or silk depicts blossoming branches in ink and pink pigments, featuring a column of calligraphy and a red seal mark to the upper right. The lot further contains a dark-toned figure of a seated official or scholar, likely carved from soapstone or cast in composite resin, with incised robe details. Two textiles complete the collection: a large white textile with a foliate pattern and lace borders, and a packaged decorative textile with red, black, and gold geometric motifs. Small labels bearing the number 3472 are present on the presentation boxes.
