There are simply the normal blemishes(bumps and dips) one expects with earthenware crudely fashioned by hand. Notwithstanding these blemishes(entirely normal for an ancient earthenware jar such as this) it has emerged from the soil in wonderful condition! There are some light soil accretions which could be brushed or washed off if one were gentle and careful. Although it is probable that this specimen is much older.

Antique Turkestan Glazed Terracotta Plate Green Floral 19th Century An antique Turkestan polychrome glazed terracotta small plate decorated with a green floral design. The edge of the plate is detailed with a superb pie-crest pattern. Such pieces would have formed part of a home's traditional Turkestan tableware; stylistic influence from the Orient. Notably China are very obvious in some pieces and this, as early as the 9th century. Shaped on a very basic potter's wheel. The wares are then glazed and fired in a traditional kiln. The firing is done on a tripod and as a result three visible marks where the glaze is absent are visible at the center of the plate. The tripod allows for the plates to be stacked one upon another so that each will bake properly and evenly. NOTE: Please refer to The Arts and Crafts of Turkestan by Johannes ... moreKalter. Ed.

Antique 19th century Turkestan Plate Platter Glazed Terracotta Floral
Superb Antique Glazed Terracotta Platter Floral 19th century Turkestan A large antique Turkestan polychrome glazed terracotta platter decorated with an impressive floral and leaf design. Such pieces would have formed part of a home's traditional Turkestan tableware; stylistic influence from the Orient. Notably China are very obvious in some pieces and this, as early as the 9th century. Shaped on a very basic potter's wheel. The wares are then glazed and fired in a traditional kiln. The firing is done on a tripod and as a result three visible marks where the glaze is absent are visible at the center of the plate. The tripod allows for the plates to be stacked one upon another so that each will bake properly and evenly. NOTE: Please refer to The Arts and Crafts of Turkestan by Johannes Kalter. Ed. Thames and Hudson(1983) p. 22-23 Absences ... moreand wear. Age crack(visible in 4th photo) chip on underside(visible in 3rd photo) 19th century Turkestan. Central Asia.

Amazing 19th century folding book made entirely from wood, African possibly?
A stunning folding book that appears to be entirely made of wood including the long extending pages. Folding up to 8 x 6 x 5 cm it extends to an amazing 250 cm. I don't have any idea what the language is. The wood for the covers at least are walnut I think and the patina is totally amazing. Clearly its been handled almost constantly as it has an amazing feel to it and has been shaped by being in hands or a pocket. I've had various people guess at it but thats all they have really been so if you have any information or idea as to what it is I'd love to hear from you. No damage of any kind. No splits, or repairs. Please examine all the close up pictures for exact condition. Please see my other items for more oriental art. Happy to combine postage. I am happy to ship well packed worldwide by insured airmail. The recent actions of ... morea few dishonest ebayers mean I need to set some ground rules. Please note that we ship within 5 working days after receiving payment. We are often away from home sourcing antiques midweek and simply cannot post next day. Our auctions end on a sunday and we ship thursday or friday as most buyers have paid by then although some take longer. We do however expect payment within 3 days where possible especially if we haven’t done business before. We ONLY ship by insured trackable airmail, please do not ask us to ship by any other cheaper method at your own risk, I’ve recently learnt that at your own risk means you will try and claim your money back after you’ve received your item unless I can prove delivery. We will usually try and combine shipping costs where possible for international post this means up to a limit of 2kg packed weight which is the limit for international parcels after which items go by courier which is far more expensive. We spend a lot of money every month on proper packing materials. We recover some of these costs through our postage charges as allowed by ebay however we pack and handle for free.
