During the Coronavirus pandemic I am unable to post anything right away other than very small things like scarabs, amulets, rings and a few other smaller items. 

Also I'm not going online much and if you send me an email I may not be able to reply for a while .

No impersonal 'shopping basket' system here. I prefer to do all this personally by email.

 

 

ALSO  PLEASE NOTE

There are hardly any items for sale beyond page 29 on the gallery here.

I have left so many sold items on show (and in the sold archive) as many collectors have said they find such photos and information useful to have.

This Northern Wei Dynasty brick is from a group I purchased for my own collection over 12 years ago.
It was the only one with a non religious representation and that is what makes this one so interesting as the the figure clearly demonstrates the beginnings of how female figures were depicted in the Tang Dynasty.

Quite a bit of the colour still remaining.


300 mm x 135 mm x 70 mm.


I have available for the buyer a copy of the TL report of another brick in this particular group. See the photo. The one TL tested was a more common so called 'Buddha brick' It is described as "Han" on the certificate, but that's incorrect. All the bricks in this group are Wei.

Yuan Wei (Northern Wei) which is 386 - 534.

The last photo shows it alongside a typical Tang dynasty brick.

Price: 595 GBP
