Description
A LARGE CLOISONNÉ ENAMEL GLOBULAR VASE, Japan, Meiji period (1868-1912) with flared octagonal rim and short tapering neck, decorated to one side with a figure of a seated archer playing a flute within a circular sky-blue reserve, the opposing side reserved with three foraging quail set against a ground of cranes in flight, on short circular foot. H: 31cm Provenance: Private Irish collection of Marion Newman and Blanche Handelman In the vibrant era of the 1960s, Marion Newman and Blanche Handelman embarked on a remarkable venture by opening antique shops in Dublin. At No. 4 Molesworth Street and Ormond Quay, the duo established their esteemed antique stores, with the latter named Ormond Antiques. Mrs. Handelman, distinguished by her passion for Belleek porcelain, emerged as a prominent dealer in this exquisite art form. Beyond her expertise in Belleek, she was an avid collector of artworks, with a particular affinity for pieces of Asian origin. For three decades, Ormond Antiques graced Dublin's antique scene, becoming a hub for enthusiasts and collectors alike. However, as the sands of time continued to flow, the chapter of Ormond Antiques concluded in 1990. Despite the conclusion of its trading days, the legacy of Marion Newman and Blanche Handelman's contributions to the world of antiques and art endures, leaving an indelible mark on Dublin's cultural tapestry.
