A set of very fine Chinese Guangxu period (1875-1908) famille rose figural wine pot and warmer, exceptionally hard to find, both the wine pot and warmer are original match, with their original wire handles. Both decorated with figural scenes all around, telling a story of "There are always fish willing to be caught by angler Jiang Taigong." Condition: only the wine pot has a very tight barely seen short hairline at the mouth rim, otherwise all in great original condition. Dimension: the inner wine pot itself measures 4 1/8" or 10.5 cm tall and 3" or 7.5 cm wide; the outer warmer measures 4 1/4" or 11 cm tall and 4 3/8" or 11.2 cm wide. Story Note: The story says when King Wen decided to go hunting, Bian, his official historian, burnt a tortoise shell to forecast the result. After reading the cracks he said, "Hunting on the north side of the Wei River is bound to bring a great gain. It will not be a dragon or a chi, nor will it be a tiger or a bear. It will be a wise man sent by heaven to be your minister and mentor." King Wen got on his carriage, started the horses, and set out for the place. There he saw Jiang Taigong sitting on the grass fishing by Wei River.
