Asiatica

The Asian Handicrafts category includes handicrafts from all over the Asian continent. While porcelain and ceramic wares from China make up a significant part of Auctionet’s range of Asian artefacts, you will also find listings for furniture, textiles, works of art and more, not only from China, but also from Japan, India and Southeast Asia.
Sweden has a long history of trade relations with China, and has traditionally been home to an impressive collection of Oriental artefacts. Today, the most sought-after items are porcelain vases and bowls, censers, snuff bottles and pendants and bronzes with religious themes.
Auctionet’s catalogue of sold items includes a mandarin hat from 19th-century Vietnam, a Sino-Tibetan Buddha figure in gilt bronze originally from the estate of Finnish statesman Baron Carl Gustaf Emil Mannerheim and a yellow dish from China bearing the Yongzheng seal mark from B. Tarras-Wahlberg’s collection.
