Delving into Mudware

Have you been bitten by the "mud man" bug? 

Join the club!  In addition to (soon!) offering many quality antique and vintage mud men figures for sale, I've put together information for you about how I became interested in the mud men art form,  some history of these beautifully handcrafted Chinese Shekwan ceramic mud figurines, and tips to help determine the age and value of them.  This may be the most comprehensive site about mud men and their history.
​
It is becoming increasingly more difficult finding antique and vintage mud figures, because there are more collectors than ever before, even though our numbers may be small in comparison to other types of collectors.  As I'm sure you're aware, any mud figures that you collect will continue to increase in value.  Owning mud men figures is a great investment, as well as beautiful "eye candy". Most of the mud figures I will be offering for sale date from the 1890s to the 1940s.  The mud figures will be divided into categories based upon size for your ease in browsing and selecting the mudware of your choice.

If you are a new collector or just curious about these beautifully handmade vintage mud figures, please take time to find out more by reading The History and Mystery of the Mud Man Figures.

Contact

The Great Wall

 After an incredibly long hiatus, I am back! Quite literally, it felt like I was walking The Great Wall. While I was away dealing with family issues, I received hundreds of emails - some wishing to sell them,  but most wanting to know if they have a genuine mud figure, asking for appraisals, or asking questions. I apologize for not being responsive to your emails. I've just had too much on my plate and something had to give!
Mud figures will be added to the shop over the next few months. Be patient, please. It takes a considerable amount of time to inventory, measure and photograph. For now, I  am simply giving the site a fresh, more streamlined look and keeping the important information regarding the history of the mud figures.
​Come back soon to see visit our new SHOP. Once I add my new contact info, please do not send photos with your initial email. In my response, I will instruct as to what I may need to better assist you.
