The Ultimate Conceptual Masterpiece: Ruined 19th Century Antique Porcelain - One-Off
Description:
Forget the $6.2 million duct-tape banana. For sale is a truly unique, non-reproducible conceptual antique masterpiece.
Look closely at the center of this 19th-century hard-paste porcelain plate. Underneath the brutal, chaotic, and completely aggressive dark cobalt brushstrokes, you can clearly trace the ghost of a much finer, original, elegant hand-painted design of a flower on a stand.
But the artist chose chaos. Driven by historical capitalism or sheer artistic frustration, they took a heavy brush and aggressively blacked it out with thick cobalt, creating a perfect visual metaphor for destroyed expectations, modern stress, and the censorship of beauty.
This is the only plate of its kind in existence. You will never find a second one with this exact, historically significant "ruined" character.
Diameter: 20.1 cm.
Condition: Structurally flawless. It rings with a pure crystal sound, preserving the tragedy perfectly inside the glaze. Shows authentic, historic utensil marks on the surface from its previous lives.
Terms: NO SWAPS. Cash or bank transfer only. No time wasters.
Price: €243,000 (Firm)
