1937—PART FOUR _ - s - GLOBE - TROTTER RECEIVES ART FROM THE SHOPS OF CHINA |[Continuing the Low-Down ' T On Stars’ Original Names Their Owns Mother Wouldn’t Know Them if They Saw Combinations on Letters on Marquees. By Robert B. Phillips, Jr. THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C., AUGUST 15, Rare Oriental art treasures secured by Violet Haven of Washington for her private collection during her recent trans-Pacific flight on the China Clipper. Far East Arrives in Washington in Eleven Packing Cases Following Spring Clipper Trip. By Louisa Wassell. ROM far across the China Sea | has recently been delivered to Violet Sweet Haven of Wash- ington 11 cases of Oriental treasures. These gems of the Far East | were purchased by the “globe-trotter” last April during a sojourn in Hong- kong, the last stop on her trans- Pacific flig aboard the famous China Clippe Camphix chests vied with rugs, pewter mug: benches, China te: vases as the collector of customs checked—one by one—the varied as- sortment. “Hankow road. a narrow, canyonlike street in Hongkong.” Miss Haven explained, “was the last home ©of many of these antiques.” But for the long journey, these ex- quisite pieces of Chinese art seemed Peking teakwood chow 0ts and cloisonne perfectly at ease in their new Wash-| ington home. Tall dragon lamps, lighted from soft vari-colored silk lanterns, stand sentinel to opium stools. Massive camphor and teak- wood chests rest beside diminutive teapots, shadowed by filigreed screens, 8ll hand-carved Cantonese blackwood from the south of China. “The pungent spiciness of the teak adds zest,” the collector of Asiatic treasures said, “while the matic fumes of the camphor lend a peace- ful, dreamy Oriental atmosphere to one’s surroundings, a constant re- minder of my life in the Far East.” Calling attention to the magnifi- cently carved blackwood dragon arti- cles, “I found these,” Miss Haven #ald, “on the Kowloon side of Hong- kong. Two young Chinese boys at Hing Loong’s brought out their best Foochow lacquer, old brass and bronze ware, with jade quartz and Peking cloisonne. To enhance the charm | these clever sales boys grouped opmm stools, chow benches and carved fire screens so0 artistically that I could not Tesist them—as you see.” PERHAPS the lovellest of all were the teak chests carved heavily with jintikshas, Chin Jjunks, dra- gons and pagodas, the tops and sides of which were a mass of inch-deep carvings, showing distinct types of Chinese culture. “It took the untiring labor whole famity,” the globe-trotter said, “more than a year to carve the largest chests. This family of wood carvers is only one of a legion of cultural China who inherit this handicraft | from generations of ancestors. Just | as some Chinese live a lifetime on | Junks,” she continued, “making up | the nomadic population of the rivers | of Cathay, these woodcarvers live on | land, decade after decade within the | confines of their workshops.” 1 An old sea captain with whom Miss | Haven had sailed the Pacific, the Caribbean and the Atlantic had often told her of the Chinese craftsman- ship. “On each voyage,” she said, “the skipper would unravel alluring | tales of the fascinating fandangles | Kwoon Fat had woven into his car ings at the little Canton shop on Kow- loon row. Therefore, when we reached our eastern destination in April, we headed post haste to the place of my dreams,” she added, “and this is the result | As she entered the shop, Miss Ha- ven related, a withered old Chinaman, | a master craftsman, at his work- bench, paused long enough to nod a silent greeting to our friendly group, | the skipper and some others who had | | been visiting the carver's shop time and again during the past 30 years. “The old man smiled with pride,” she said, "as we stopped to admire & chest heavily embossed with a de- #ign depicting the evolution of Chinese sea craft from the tiniest junk to the modern sailing vessels. That is the romantic history that surrounds this smaller chest.” HOLDING up a hand-carved Buddha lamp, “You know,” Miss Haven said, with a far-off look in her eyes, “wood carving has always fascinated me. I can wax into a tangent on the subject. This art is of the highest antiquity. Even among the most uncivilized tribes, rudely carved representatives in wood are common.” The early history of the Chinese s shrouded in fable but it is an ac- cepted fact among most historians that civilization had advanced among them when it was only beginning to dawn on the nations of Europe. “In the early and middle ages,” she said, “wood carving became somewhat general for symbols and decorations. This old Buddha is supposed to have existed about the fifth century B.C. He was worshipped as the “Wise One” or *Enlightened One.” In this perfect Oriental setting, a Chinese dinner set caught the eye. Is consisted of 82 pieces, all hand painted with rose medallions and peopled with dainty Chinese figures. There were bouillon cups and saucers, Chinese spoons, curry sets with lac- quered boxes, teapots and the like. In contrast, nearby stood vivid blue eloisonne vases and bowls elaborately inlaid with copper and gold dragons of a | are Jack Benny, In keeping with the fad now popu- lar among hostesses in China, Miss Haven selected a different pattern for | each course of her dinner set. “Weing | Hing is to chinaware east of Suez |What Ford is to automobiles.” ehe | explained. “People the world over when in Hongkong, knowing full well that the wares are as reliable as the | day is long.” \§ THOUGH to give the “last word” to the Oriental atmosphere. a huge crate of rugs had been unpacked and were scattered about the floor, walls and furniture. “Chinese rugs— my obsession, and a most expensive Miss Haven admitted, g (] nghai six years ago I bought a e blue rug in a shop along the Bund. It was put aboard a German steamer and taken through the Suez, later journeying across the Atlantic on the Bremen. I am very fond of it, i for it brings back memories of my globe-circling junket to Malay, Egypt, Africa and Europe.” By the same token, larger rugs, recently Honzkong, will be a constant re- mindi of the “great adventure of the China Clipper flight.” a longer and much more exciting travel experience, covering 26,000 miles. The globe trotter been collecting ental art for years. As a young girl graduate from a Western college, she accepted a posi- | tion teaching school in Hawaii. After | a year there Miss Haven went to Tokio to teach in the American School, | where she stayed for some time. “I presume the colorful life of the Orient,” she said, “in striking contrast | to the drab existence of the West, i made an indelible imprint on me.” | When asked why she preferred the |Far Eastern to modern furniture, | Miss Haven replied: “Many people ®o picnicking and bring home flowers as mementoes of a stroll in a pretty Others bri a cluster of | from a friend's garden v those who travel afar collect rare paintings, jewelry, or have other hobbie: Early in life, on visit to the Far East, I started bringing back some beautiful, yet useful, piece of Chinese, Korean and Philippine art in hopes that some day | I may have an entirely Asiatic home atmosphere.” purchased from violets Us dolls, many each Coming Attractions Downtown Theaters Book Films for Next Week. arle — “Artists and Models,” first of Paramount’s new sea- son releases, arrives Friday with a lot of girls, music, spec- tacle, novelties and comed) Stars Ida Lupino, Gail Patrick and Richard Arlen and there are specialties by Ben Blue, Judy Canova, Martha Raye, Connie Bos- | well and a lot of others.
