On offer is a Guangxu Chinese export porcelain water dropper modelled in the form of a pineapple, dating to the late 19th or early 20th century. Water droppers were an essential part of the traditional Chinese scholar’s desk, used to dispense small amounts of water when preparing ink for calligraphy and painting. This attractive example is moulded with detailed fruit and curling leaf decoration and finished in a vibrant mottled green glaze that enhances its naturalistic form.

The water dropper stands approximately 3.25 inches tall and remains in good antique condition with only light age related wear. A charming and increasingly collectable example of Guangxu Chinese export porcelain, ideal for collectors of Chinese scholar’s objects and antique ceramics.
