王步 青花喜鵲高飛圖瓷板 A Chinese blue and white porcelain plaque depicting 3 birds flying over a field by the artist Wang Bu and signed. Meticulously painted in varying tones of blue underglaze, depicting three birds flying across branches, bushes and grasses, the seal Wang Bu in seal script written to the lower left side above the bushes. Wang Bu was born in 1898 in Fengcheng County, Jiangxi Province. He is known today as âthe King of Blue & White,â because he reinvigorated underglaze blue and white porcelain in the Republic period, when all fame and fortune had previously gone to the Eight friends of Zhushan with their Qianjiang and fencai palettes. Dimensions are: 10 inches tall X 15 1/4 inches wide. All measurements are approximate. Condition: It is in good condition, with no visible cracks, chips, or repairs.

Mr. Chiu's mother had an antiques shop in Johannesburg, South Africa from the 1950s to the 1970s and often travelled to Hong Kong to purchase antiques for her shop, as well as her personal collection. These items were purchased during those trips.
