The Howell Collection of Lowestoft Porcelain
Hammer auction
Wednesday 23 April 2025
Starting at 11am
We are delighted to present The Howell Collection of Lowestoft Porcelain, showcasing the work of one of the most celebrated English porcelain producers of the 18th century. Known for its blue and white underglaze decoration and polychrome florals, Lowestoft porcelain remains highly sought after due to its relatively short period of production.
Highlights include an important inscribed mug dated 1790, a porcelain cat, and a rare early pickle dish. Alongside these pieces are a variety of tea wares, mugs and vases as well as less common forms such as feeding cups and a spittoon. Many pieces boast an excellent provenance.

May
Master of the Chinese Southern School: A Collector’s Selection of Wang Shimin Paintings
Hammer auction
Thursday 22 May 2025
Starting at 12 noon
Renowned as one of the most influential painters of the early Qing dynasty, Wang Shimin was a master of classical Chinese landscape painting. Born into a scholarly family in Taicang, Jiangsu province, Wang was deeply influenced by the Southern School of painting, especially the styles of Yuan dynasty artists like Huang Gongwang and Ni Zan.
A talented scholar and calligrapher as well, Wang combined poetry, painting, and philosophy in his art, creating deeply meditative landscapes that evoke timeless harmony with nature. His brushwork is elegant and controlled, often portraying misty mountains, winding rivers, and tranquil retreats—idealized visions of a scholar’s inner world.
As one of the revered ‘Four Wangs’ and a central figure in the Orthodox School, Wang Shimin helped shape the aesthetic values of Chinese literati painting for generations. Today, his works are celebrated for their balance, grace, and scholarly depth.
We are proud to offer four of his exceptional pieces for sale—each reflecting the legacy of a true master.
