Pair of 17th century porcelain boxes from the Hatcher Cargo

About the Item

Pair of 17th century Chinese porcelain blue and white boxes painted with flowering branches of prunus growing from rockwork. These tiny transitional period (1620-1683) boxes were recovered by Captain Michael Hatcher from the wreck of a ship that sunk in the South China seas in approximately 1643. The hoard was the subject of a large sale at Christie's Amsterdam in 1984. The finish on these pieces has been softened, with the blues more muted due to their 300-year stay in saltwater. A similar box is pictured on p. 23 of the Christie's catalog of June 12-13, 1984. Provenance: Christie's Amsterdam, Hatcher Cargo June 12-13, 1984.
