A blue and white ware tea caddy, with figures design The arrangement of a figure within a bamboo grove creates a tranquil scene, rich in poetic feeling. The pairing of a bamboo grove and a figure evocative of a lofty scholar (koji) conveys a distinct literati sensibility, condensing the flavour of Chinese painting onto the small surface of a chaire (tea caddy). H: 8.5cm D: 5cm Wooden box China, Qing Dynasty
