At this year's party, there will be a market selling Chinese and other Asian art and artefacts for you to purchase and cherish. You will also be able to enjoy tea and calligraphy demonstrations, as well as delicious Chinese food.
On 2 and 3 April Bonhams is offering an important collection of Chinese textiles and official ceramics, the most comprehensive survey of later Chinese textiles to come to the market in Australia. It includes more than 40 formal and informal gowns, some attributed to the Empress Dowager Cixi’s wardrobe, and countless dress accessories including fan cases, purses, collars, hats, shoes, rank badges.
