An assortment of decorative ceramics, stoneware, and miniature collectibles. The lot features a Chinese porcelain collector plate from the Beauties of the Red Chamber series, produced by Jingdezhen. The plate depicts a female figure in traditional dress within a landscape and is housed in its original yellow fabric-covered presentation box. The box lid is inscribed with the characters 紅樓夢十二金釵, which translates to Twelve Beauties of the Mansion of the Red Chamber. The plate includes a red square seal mark and black script characters.
The collection includes three German-style beer steins: a large cobalt blue and grey salt-glazed stoneware stein with relief-moulded scrollwork and cabochons, a pictorial ceramic stein featuring a vineyard scene with a tree-branch handle and the inscription DRACHE, and a tall ceramic stein with a transfer-printed scene of a figure in a red cloak. All three steins are fitted with pewter lids.
Additional items include a white porcelain teapot featuring an applied three-dimensional purple flower finial and painted floral sprays, a small shallow bowl decorated with a cockerel, and several miniatures. The miniatures consist of two resin-cast architectural models of thatched cottages, a small metallic silver-toned dragon figurine, and two animal figurines representing a rabbit and a pig.
