Provenance

The Stenbeck Collection.

Stenbeck was for many years the presiedent of the Swedish Oriental Ceramics Society. His collection has been vast and unusual in comprising a wide range of Chinese porcelains produced primarily between 1620 and 1683, for the domestic, Japanese and Dutch markets. But he has also had a passion for Chinese furniture and Wanli porcelain.
Having studied, collected and exhibited these splendid wares for almost forty years, Stenbeck now feels that it is time to offer part of his collection at auction. Bukowskis is pleased to have been able to sell items from this impressive collection during several auctiona, see for example sale 568 an onwards.

Exhibitions

The collection was exhibited at the Heinola Museum in Finland in 2000, under the exhibition name “The Liberated Brush”.
