Dear Reader,
Welcome to our Festive Newsletter and the last message from us of 2024.
These last 12 months seem to have flown by and it has been another fascinating year in the world of Oriental Art. We have been lucky enough to have made some wonderful new customers as well as working with our much-valued regular clients.
At the beginning of the year, we introduced a new online initiative, our “Featured Item of the Month”. It has proved very popular with hundreds of visitors reading our blogs and learning more about our collection of Chinese and Japanese Fine Art and Antiques.
More recently, we set up our YouTube Channel and we have started the process of uploading video content there and on our website listings as a new way of showcasing some of the works in the collection. You can subscribe to our YouTube Channel by Clicking Here. We are adding new videos on a weekly basis.
In this newsletter we showcase a very special Satsuma vase signed Sozan, learn about one of the most iconic Japanese landmarks, take a look back at some of the wonderful works of art that have left the collection over the last 12 months and of course, we give you a sneak preview at some of the fantastic pieces that we will be adding to our online collection in the New Year.
We hope you enjoy the read.

What we value: Our appraisal service
This year we have once again, helped raise hundreds of Pounds for The British Red Cross through our “What we value” initiative. We regularly receive request to provide valuations and background information on Chinese and Japanese works of art and instead of charging for this service, we simply ask that a small donation is made to our chosen charity. The British Red Cross, as part of the Global Disasters Emergency Committee, carry out incredible and vital work, providing food and water, first aid, shelter, warm clothing, hygiene parcels and much more. You can find out more about this initiative and how to request a valuation by clicking here.
