Ivy Chan, Head of Sale: “This sale saw particularly strong bidding for top quality porcelain most notably from the Qing dynasty (18th century). The market responded well to the important provenance of the works in this collection. Further works from the collection will be offered in the two day sale at Christie’s South Kensington on 12 and 15 May. Following the Hong Kong and Paris sales in May and June, we look forward to the next King Street sale which will take place during Asian Art in London, November 2015.” |
