Official Summer Greetings- with weather to match!
This month, the United States celebrates the 250th anniversary of its founding. In 1776, in China, the Qianlong Emperor was ruling. In 1785, the first trade ship from the United States to China, the aptly named The Empress of China, would make its voyage from New York to Canton. Interest and fascination with Chinese art and culture in the United States has been continuous from that time on. And for 116 years, our Gallery has proudly been a part of this!
During the summer months, there is a lot of activity in New York City with many visitors on holiday. If you are in the area or planning to visit New York City during the summer, please include our Gallery in your schedule. We would be pleased to welcome you and show you through our large collection of fine antique Chinese porcelain and works of art. Aside from July 3, we will be open all summer, Monday to Friday, from 10 AM to 6 PM.
Our Summer Booklet will be published shortly- please stay tuned! In the interim, do have a look on the CATALOGUE section of this site. We are adding more photos and information on all of the pieces. We would be delighted to hear from you and welcome your inquiries.
Happy Summer and July 4th!
Steven, Andrew, and Joshua Chait
