RARE c1900 CHINESE SING FAT STERLING SILVER TEA SET TEAPOT JUG SUGAR BOWL & CASE

  

RARE c1900 CHINESE SING FAT STERLING SILVER TEA SET TEAPOT JUG SUGAR BOWL & CASE. Thank you for having a look at my auctions. We are very excited this week to be featuring our first offering of items from the Important estate collection of the late Michael Vermeer.

Vermeer is literally a famous figure when it comes to Chinese ceramics starting his career in the late 1960s in his early 20s. With close to 50 years experience Mr.

Vermeer was thought by many to be one of the worlds top Chinese ceramic experts and authorities. Celadon, Monochrome, and Flambe wares were Mr. Vermeers passion and over the years Mr. This is session one featuring some incredible and rarely found examples from the Vermeers collection. I believe this is one of our finest sales to date.

I do wish everyone the very best of luck winning the auctions! This tea set is a fine example that is completely hand made throughout. The tea set has a beautiful floral landscape design with bamboo form handles and spout. The tea set has never been monogrammed, which is a nice find.

Each piece is hallmarked by the well known late 19th to earlier 20th century Chinese silversmith Sing Fat. The tea set has some light mark and could use a cleaning but is overall in substantially fine condition for its age with no large dints, cracks, holes, or repairs. There is a small slot that I believe was for sugar tongs that are missing.

The wood carved box shows its age with wear and losses throughout and the sliding lid is loose. It is still very nice to find the original box with the set and it still displays the set very nicely.

This tea set is a full size set the teapot measuring 10 inches long, by 5 1/2 inches wide, and 4 1/2 inches tall. The cream jug and sugar bowl measure approximately 5 1/4 inches long, by 3 3/4 inches wide, and 2 3/4 inches tall. The tea set has a total quality weight of 932 grams. Chinese silver tea set such as this are being exceedingly hard to find, mostly being offered without reserve! BEST OF LUCK WITH THE AUCTIONS!
