Chinese Export Porcelain European Subject Stand

China Ca. 1740

Chinese Export porcelain that I think this is a tea pot stand. I’ve never seen this star shaped form before. It has an enamel scene of a courting couple with a chaperone seated in a landscape. The rim has a line and chevron pattern with a Greek key on the inner sides.

Antique Brass and Iron Serpentine Fire Place Fender, Ca. 1780

A nice small example with a serpentine facade. The top is capped in brass with iron wire work below on an iron and sheet iron base. These were made from the mid 1700s into the 1820s corresponding with furniture designs of that period with serpentine shaped fronts.
