Chinese archaeology, porcelain and ceramics
Asian Art
MDP Auction regularly offers Asian works of art in its online public auctions. Our knowledge of the major Chinese dynasties — Han, Wei, Tang, Ming — guides how every lot is selected and catalogued.
What we offer
Period sculpture and terracotta, porcelain and ceramics, scholar's objects, bronzes and archaeological pieces. Every lot is photographed, measured and described in the online catalog.
Authentication
The Asian archaeological pieces we offer are supported by thermoluminescence testing, a laboratory analysis that dates when the clay was last fired.
Bidding on Asian art
Bidding takes place entirely online. Bid live as the sale progresses, or leave an absentee (proxy) bid with your maximum: the system bids on your behalf up to that limit.
