Chinese Qianlong Famille

Superbly decorated with puce flowers and foliage, a charming Qianlong Period export teapot. Distinctively Chinese handle and finial. A small chip to the spout and minor chipping to the cover. Ultimately, it is the combined price which reflects the true cost. See our other items. If you like what you see, we do have other items that are not necessarily listed and which may be of interest. We use recycled packaging. It helps our environmental footprint, but does not necessarily look very pretty! If you wish for the latter, please let us know. There will be an additional charge which we will notify to you. Until that point, the item will be at our risk. We are prepared to deliver all over the world, except (for obvious reasons, given the Russian state’s unprovoked acts of aggression in Ukraine) to Russia. We aim to ensure that our descriptions are absolutely accurate. Nevertheless, antique porcelain is never perfect. We use high definition photography with the aim of making the condition of any item extremely clear. Defects which are obvious in the photography we use are deemed to have been declared, even if we do not specifically refer to them in the description. An example of such a defect would be crazing-but we do not regard fine crazing as being a defect. If crazing is a particular issue for you, please let us know and we will then report as to whether there is any. Restoration is sometimes extremely difficult to detect. We use UV light and transmitted light to check whether restoration has occurred. Sometimes, even those methodologies do not reveal restoration. If you are able, notwithstanding the definition, to show that restoration of a significant nature has occurred, we would obviously allow cancellation of the sale in such circumstances.
