Although there may be no complicated illustrations, the bowl exudes the lifelike charm of flowers and birds. In a static state, it is filled with a lively energy. It is quite a rare work. Birds and flowers represent harmony and tranquility. From this work, it is not hard to see the Southern Song Dynasty people’s desire for a stable life during a turbulent era. 這件南宋的貼花鳳紋碗,是規則的圓形,由碗口逐漸向足圈收斂。 外壁呈現出漂亮的棕色。足圈處以白色環繞,使得色調異常柔和。 加上斑駁的白點,更顯得古色古香。內壁不是一成不變的棕色,而 是巧妙地佈滿棕色斑點,再貼上鳳鳥和花朵。雖然沒有繁複的畫 工,卻栩栩如生的勾勒出花、鳥的神韻。在靜態中,有著活潑的機 趣。是件不可多得的作品。花鳥圖代表著和諧、安寧,從這件作品 中,不難看出南宋人在動盪不安的時代中,對安穩生活的渴求。

The rust on the inner walls contains subtle flowershaped formations, much like honeysuckle drops on black satin. These match the seemingly leaf-shaped erosions on the outer wall. This bowl exudes an elegant sense of magnificence through simplicity.

This heart-shaped jar has a black glaze base, with a glossy and smooth exterior. The body of the jar is shaped like a pear, with a small mouth and plump abdominal. There is a small circular stool underneath the jar, and the bottom is not colored. Reddish-brown spots dot the abdominal, while similarly colored lines beneath the spots appear like flowing clouds. The smooth rust that runs along the rim serves as a type of decoration. The small lid is covered with iron marks. The whole work is shaped like a chicken heart. Exquisitely detailed, the jar is both beautiful and practical. This is indeed a representative work from the period of the Song and Jin dynasties.

During the Jin Dynasty, globular jars were prevalent in the northern areas of China primarily as wine vessels. Their Chinese name, “du lu”, was inspired by the sound of wine being poured. This globular jar has a short neck and abundant shoulders. The mouth features a flat inner rim that gradually merges into the neck. Its plump body exudes a rustic charm reminiscent of the people from the grasslands of China. Glazed in brown, the jar’s protruding vertical contours typical of Jin Dynasty pottery were created by molding vertical lines around the body. These contours accentuates the brownish tones of the glaze, imbuing the piece with even greater three dimensional qualities. This is truly a rare masterpiece. Comparison: From the collection of Hong Kong collector, Hu Hui-Chun, Black Glaze Jar with Protruding Vertical Contours can be used as a stylistic reference for the vertical contour craftsmanship of its era. See: Black Beauty - Black Glaze Porcelain Treasures of Ancient China , Beijing: Wenwu Publishing House, 2012, p. 174. 嘟嚕瓶盛行於金元時期的北方地區,主要作用是盛酒。「嘟嚕」 應是倒酒時所發出的聲響。這件嘟嚕瓶短頸、豐肩。瓶口有內 沿,口沿下漸收。腹部鼓出,造型渾圓飽滿,充滿了草原民族的 粗豪率性。以黑釉為底,採用金代獨有的出筋手法,在黑彩上刻 劃出筋脈,讓褐色紋飾凸出而立體。是件不可多得的好作品。 比對: 香港收藏家胡惠春氏藏有一件金 〈黑釉出筋梅瓶〉,可作為同時 代出筋工藝的風格參考。詳見: 《玄色之美──中國歷代黑釉瓷 器珍品》,北京:文物出版社, 2012年,頁174。

The ewer has a semi-circular handle positioned directly opposite to the spout and connected to the shoulder and neck.

This bean-shaped pillow has a high front, low rear, and slight concave middle. This pillow is a classic Ding ware, and can often be seen in major museums around the world. It is engraved with a peony, which represents wealth. From the crafting method, we can probably guess that brown was painted on the embryo. After sketching out the decoration, the outer parts were removed, thus manifesting the three dimensional effect of a brown peony on white ground. The sides are engraved with curly grass patterns, which seem quite bold. Only the upper side and bottom of the pillow are there a few traces of cracks, manifesting the passage of time. Comparison: The Palace Museum in Beijing has a similarly styled gold Ding White Glaze Floral Pillow in its collection that can be used as a reference.

The Company does not guarantee that the Lots on auction are in good working condition and the descriptions in the catalogue must not be construed as implying such. The description of the auction items also do not imply that the items have not gone through readjustment or repair or allude anything about the current state or storage conditions of the items.

We strongly recommend the Prospective Buyers to personally view the items for which they plan to bid before the auction itself.

Catalogue Explanations Any statement of the author, history, date, year, size, material, ownership, authenticity, origin, condition of preservation or estimated selling price of any of the Lots and certificates thereof shown in the catalogue or the authentication opinion made by the Company, or any other verbal or written statements made separately shall be solely statements of opinions and shall not be deemed the basis for the statements of actual fact. The photographs shown in the catalogue shall serve as reference only and shall not be deemed as the basis for determining the color or tone of any Lots or disclosure of the defects of such item. The estimates of the auction price shall not be deemed the price at which such item will be successfully sold or the statement of the value of the item for other purposes. Many auction items fail to maintain their perfect condition because of time and other environmental factors. Some of the explanations in the catalogue or the authentication opinions will state defects and/or the repair background of the Lots. Such information is meant for reference only. Missing information in the statements does not mean the Lot has no defects or has not been repaired. Any statement of one particular defect does not mean there is no any other defect. e.

i. 出口許可證 除本公司另有書面同意外,買家希望申請出口許可證之事實,並不影響買家在成功拍 賣日後起算七天內付款之責任,亦不影響本公司對延遲付款收取利息之權利。 如買家要求本公司代為申請出口許可證,本公司有權向其收回與此項申請有關之付出款 項及零碎開支連同任何有關之稅款。 如買家不管需要有出口許可證之事實而作出付款,本公司並無責任退還買家因此而引致 之任何利息或其他開支。 5. 本公司之法律責任 本公司僅在第二條第6項所列之情況下,得將退還款項予買家。除此之外,不論賣家或本 公司,或本公司任何僱員或代理人,對任何拍賣品之作者、來歷、日期、年代、尺寸、 材質、歸屬、真實性、產地、保存狀況或估計售價之陳述,或任何拍賣品之任何缺陷, 均不負有任何責任。賣家、本公司、本公司之僱員或代理人,不論明示或暗示,均無就 任何拍賣品作出任何保證。 6. 贗品/贓物之退款 如經本公司拍賣之拍賣品,經本公司書面認可之專業鑑定機構出具鑑定報告證實為贗品 或贓物,則交易將取消,已付之款項於交付賣方前將退還予買家。但如: a. 在拍賣日發出之目錄說明或拍賣場通告符合當時學者或專家普遍接納之意見,或清楚 表明有抵觸當時學者或專家普遍接納之意見,或 b. 證明拍賣品為贗品之方法,只是一種在目錄出版前仍未普遍獲接納使用之科學程序, 或是一種在拍賣日仍屬昂貴得不合理或並不實際或很可能會對拍賣品造成損壞之程 序,則本公司無論如何並無責任退還任何款項。此外,買家只在滿足下述條件下方可 獲得退款: 1. 買家必須在付款領取拍賣品後的十日內以書面通知本公司,說明買家認為有關拍賣 品乃贗品或贓物之詳細理由及證據,並通知後十四日內及將拍賣品送還本公司,而 其狀況應維持與拍賣當日相同,不得有任何損壞;及 2. 送還拍賣品時,買家須出示證據,足以使本公司確信拍賣品乃贗品或贓物(本公司保 有最終及不可異議的決定權)。在任何情況下,本公司均毋須向買家支付多於買家就 有關拍賣品而支付予本公司之款項,而買家亦不能索取利息或任何賠償。 本條款之利益不能轉讓,完全屬於拍賣品成功拍賣時獲本公司發給正本發票之買家所有 (該買家名稱確係被記載於發票上),該名買家並須自拍賣後一直保持拍賣品擁有人之身 分,而且並無將拍賣品之任何利益讓予任何第三人。本公司有權依據任何科學程序或其 他程序確定拍賣品並非膺品,不論該程序在拍賣當日是否已使用或已在使用,如本公司 驗證拍賣品是否屬於贗品之結果與買家出示證據相衝突者,應以本公司驗證結果為準。 三.賣家 1. 本公司作為代理人 本公司在公開拍賣會中,以作為賣家代理人身份行事。拍賣品成功拍賣後,即產生賣家 通過本公司之代理與買家達成之合約,由賣家負責向買家履行出賣人義務及責任。 2. 開支 賣家須負責與下述各項有關之費用: a. 將拍賣品包裝並運予本公司作拍賣。 b. 任何適用之運送保險。 c. 如拍賣品交回賣家其包裝與付運。若拍賣品由海外進口,付運費與進口適用之稅項。 d. 受保於本公司之精品保險單(下文另有解釋)。 e. 預先與賣家協定之對拍賣品作出之任何修整。 f. 本公司為擬定目錄說明指定需由外界專家作出之鑑定。 g. 本公司指定之任何外界專家意見。 h. 拍賣品拍賣前後之裝卸、貯存及保管等費用。 i. 本公司之行政費用,金額為因賣家而引致之一切費用及損害金額之10%。 j. 任何市場之推廣及廣告費用。 3. 由本公司安排保險事宜 a. 除非與本公司另有協定外,否則拍賣品將自動受保於本公司藝術品精品保險單,保險 值為本公司自行評估 當時認為適當者。然而保險金額並非本公司承諾拍賣品會成功拍 賣之款額。 b. 本公司將向賣家收取拍賣落槌價之1%或若未拍賣成功時以拍賣品底價之1%,作為保險 費。如由本公司安排運送,本公司將向賣家收取額外款項,作為運送保險費,款額視 每宗拍賣品之特定情況而定。如有需要,本公司可建議/介紹承運人,但不論於何種情 況下,本公司均不承擔任何有關此方面之運送法律責任。 c. 拍賣品在成功拍賣日後起算七天內保險仍然有效。如拍賣品未能成功拍賣,保險屆期 以後風險全由賣家承擔。 d. 由蛀木蟲、空氣、水份情況轉變或其他不能預見或人力不可抗拒情況而對拍賣品造成 之損壞,或其他非可歸責於本公司之事由所致之損壞,本公司不承擔任何法律責任。 4. 物主購買保險 如賣家特別指示本公司毋須為拍賣品購買保險,風險全由賣家承擔,直至拍賣品交付予 買家為止。賣家無條件同意須保障本公司、本公司之僱員與代理人,以及買家(如適 用)免負因拍賣品而針對本公司、本公司之僱員與代理人,以及買家索償之賠償責任, 而不論索償因何引起。賣家亦同意應本公司、本公司之僱員與代理人,以及買家所要 求,負責償還因此種索償而引致之開支,縱使本公司、本公司之僱員與代理人,以及買 家有疏忽之處,而未證明有任何法律責任而作出之付款,亦須償還。賣家須自行將本條 條款揭露予賣家之承保人。 5. 賣家就拍賣品所作之承諾 本項列出本公司處理拍賣品之基準,規範賣家與買家之間的買賣關係。如此基準在任何 方面有不確實之處,本公司或買家可採取針對賣家之法律行動。本公司處理拍賣品及購 買拍賣品,均以賣家所作之下述承諾及擔保為基準,賣家承諾及擔保如下: a. 賣家為拍賣品之唯一所有權人及/或合法持有人,具備將其所有權及相關所有權利(於無 質押、無產權負擔及無涉及第三人權益或申索的情況下)轉讓予買家之無限制權利。 b. 賣家已遵守一切與拍賣品之進出口有關之法律或其他方面之規定,並已將過去任何第 三人未能遵守此等規定之事以書面通知本公司。 c. 賣家已將其所知之有關拍賣品之任何重大修改以及第三人就拍賣品之所有權、狀況或 歸屬所表示之任何關注以書面通知本公司。 如上述a、b或c等三項擔保有任何不確實之處,賣家須應本公司及/或買家之要求,完全負 責及彌償本公司及 或買家一切因此而引起之損失索償、訴訟費、律師費、所有費用及 開支,而不論是因拍賣品還是因拍賣收益而引起。

6.拍賣安排 a.本公司對目錄內拍賣品之描述與圖示方式、鑑定意見書、拍賣地點與方式、讓何人進場 競投以及競投價之接受、是否應尋求專家意見,以及將物品合併或分開拍賣等均有完 全之決定權。 b.任何估價,不論口頭或書面,均只屬意見,而非拍賣品最終可賣得的價錢之保證。 c.未得本公司事前書面同意,賣家不可撤回拍賣品之委託。但本公司保留隨時因後述原因 而撤回、中止或終止拍賣品委託授權之權利。此等原因為: (1)本公司對拍賣品之界定或真實性或上述第5a、 b或c項所指之承諾之準確性有懷疑; 或 (2)有任何違反本業務規則之情況;或 (3)本公司認定將拍賣品納入或繼續執行拍賣並不適當者。 d. 撤銷委託或授權條款 (1)非經本公司事前書面同意,賣家不得撤回、中止或終止對於標的作品之委託或授予 本公司之權利。 (2)賣家依前項規定撤回、中止或終止拍賣品之委託或授與本公司之權利者,委託者除 應對本公司負損害賠償或經濟上損失賠償責任外,尚須支付委託底價之40%作為懲 罰性違約金付與本公司。 (3)如賣家有任何違約情事,本公司有權隨時終止委託事項,賣家須支付本公司所有之 前為履行委託或授權工作所產生之費用及開支。 7. 拍賣守則 a. 本公司將會參照底價進行拍賣品之拍賣程序。底價不得高於拍賣目錄所印登載估價之 下限,但如所同意之底價為港幣以外之貨幣,並因協定底價之日與成功拍賣之日上匯 率波動而致底價高於估價下限,則不在此限。在此情況下,除本公司另行同意外,底 價須為相等於以緊接成功拍賣前一個工作天之收市匯率計算之港幣款項。 b. 如競投價不能達到底價,本公司在任何情況均不負有任何責任,但本公司有權決定將 拍賣品以低於底價拍賣。如本公司如此將拍賣品拍賣,本公司將有責任向賣家支付成 交價與底價之差額。 c. 賣家不得以自己或第三人名義隨意哄抬競投價格,不得以自己或第三人名義參與競標 拍賣品,亦不得聘請任何人代賣家參與競投,惟本公司有權代理賣家參與競投。 8.成功拍賣後 a. 結算 成功拍賣後,本公司協助賣方要求買家最遲於成功拍賣日後7日內全數付款。在買家付 款後,除非本公司收到通知謂拍賣品為膺品,否則,本公司會於成功拍賣日期後60個 工作天,將一筆相等於成交價減去賣家應支付之所有費用之款額匯予賣家。如遇買家 延遲付款,則本公司將在買家付款後7個工作天內匯款予賣家。如因任何理由而使本公 司在買家付款前即已付款予賣家,則本公司即獲得拍賣品之完整之擁有權與所有權。 但在本公司因拍賣品為膺品而被迫向買家收回拍賣品下,賣家方須將已收取之拍賣收 益退還予本公司。 除賣家另有書面指示外,本公司將以港幣付款。如賣家要求以港幣以外之貨幣付款, 依拍賣現場由香港匯豐銀行公佈之匯率計算付款金額。 b.賣家支付每件拍賣品之手續費: (1)本公司之拍賣須至拍賣完成後買家實際付清所有款項予本公司時,視為交易完成。 (2)當交易完成,賣家須依約定支付本公司手續費。 c. 買家不付款 如買家在成功拍賣日後起算7天內未支付應付之全部款項,本公司即有權代理賣家就 付款、貯存與保險而協定特別條款,並有權代理賣家採取本公司認為適當的任何步驟 以向買家收取其應付之款項,因而產生之相關費用及損害,概由賣家自行承擔。但本 公司並未承擔任何付款責任,亦無義務代理賣家採取任何行動(包括但不限於法律行 動)。但本公司將與賣家討論如何採取適當行動以向買家追討拍賣款額。 d. 膺品/贓物 如買家於付款領取拍賣品後之十日內,使本公司相信或懷疑拍賣品為膺品或贓物或涉 及任何不法情事者,本公司得自行決定無條件買家交付之拍賣落槌價(本公司得扣處因 此所致之相關處理費用)予買家時,而拍賣品將由本公司退回賣家或送交警方處理,賣 家不得異議或對本公司主張任何權利或請求,賣家並應於本公司通知後,於三日內無 條件退還其所得之全數金額予本公司,賣家並應於十日內付清相關基本支出費用,及 賠償本公司因此所致之所有損失、損害及相關費用等。逾期退還、給付者,賣家應另 外支付按不超過香港匯豐銀行最優惠利率加10%之年利率收取整筆欠款之利息。此外 本公司可同時按日收取依賣價(含佣金)1%計算之違約金。本公司亦得自行選擇將賣 家未付之款項,用以抵銷本公司或其他附屬公司在任何其他交易中欠下賣家之款項, 賣家絕無異議。 e. 未能成功拍賣之拍賣品 (1)任何拍賣品如未能成功拍賣,或不包括在拍賣之內,或因任何理由而撤回、中止或 終止拍賣,則在本公司發出通知予賣家要求賣家領回拍賣品後之35天內,賣家必須 領回拍賣品。 (2)任何此等拍賣品如在35天過期後仍未領回,本公司可向委託者徵收每天每件標的作 品參佰港元 (HK$300)貯存費,並收取額外費用以購買保險。賣家須在付清所有未付 費用後,方可領回拍賣品。 (3)此等拍賣品如在發出領回通知後之60天內仍未領回,則可被移往第三人之貨倉貯 存,開支費用由賣家承擔。 (4)任何此等拍賣品如在拍賣日期後或上述通知日期後之90天內(以較早之日期為準) 未被領回,則本公司可視乎是否合適而將該拍賣品處置。處置包括將拍賣品移往第 三人之貨倉而開支費由賣家承擔,以及將該拍賣品按本公司認為適當之條款(包括 有關估價與底價之條款)公開拍賣。本公司其後會將拍賣收益扣除所有欠款後支付 予賣家。 (5)任何拍賣品如在拍賣中收回或未能成功拍賣,則本公司有權代理賣家在拍賣後的兩 個月內作為賣家之獨家代理人,按賣家可收取之淨款額(即扣除賣家應付之一切費 用後之款額),私下出售拍賣品。本公司得事前扣除所致之費用。在此情況下,賣 家就該拍賣品而對本公司所負有之責任、義務及付款條件等,與拍賣品成功拍賣時 一樣。 9. 圖片與圖示 賣家同意本公司有權對拍賣品制作照片、圖示、錄像或其他形式的影像制品,此等照 片、圖示、錄像及影像制品之著作權及其他一切權利均屬本公司所有,且本公司有權以 任何本公司認為適合之方式使用之,賣家絕無異議。
