A TURQUOISE AND AUBERGINE-GLAZED SQUARE BALUSTER VASE, 18TH CENTURY China. The sides rising from a tall spreading foot to a rounded shoulder with a straight neck and galleried rim. Covered entirely with a rich turquoise glaze vividly streaked in purplish blue which continues over the rim and pools above the interior shoulder, the rest of the interior and the foot rim left unglazed. Provenance: Collection Florine Langweil, no. 6583 (according to label on base). Collection J. Roubaud, no. 350. French private collection and thence by descent. An eminent dealer in Chinese antiques, Madame Florine Langweil (1861-1958), born Florine Ebstein, came to Paris in 1881. There she married Charles Langweil (1843-1920), a middle-aged Austrian who proceeded to abandon her in 1894 without resources and with two small children to bring up. Madame Langweil, with no formal training in art, threw herself into the highly specialized field of East Asian art, in which she became a great expert and ran a very successful business. In her gallery at 26 Place Saint-Georges, which she opened in 1903, she built up a vast stock of which she was justifiably proud and from which she eventually donated 250 objects to the Musee Unterlinden. Condition: Overall with minor wear and firing irregularities. A section of the mouth has been reattached, which is clearly visible under strong blue light, and there are no hidden damages of any kind. For a detailed video of the vase taken under strong blue light, please refer to the department.
