亦商亦儒 小记民国收藏家徐晓霞

On Collector Xu Xiaoxia

2009年秋天，在寓禾乡友吴香洲先生一琴一砚之斋，见到闻名久已的张廷济《清仪阁所藏古器物文》一书，不胜惊喜。香洲告：该书为台北台联国风出版社重印本，书原序署“桐乡徐钧晓霞氏叙”。于是考查文献，又经多位文史界前辈、朋友指点和帮助，这位“海上儒商徐晓霞”的生平史迹终于重新显现。

Xu Xiaoxia（1876-1963）was a rich merchant and lived in Shanhai in Modern Chian, who was a collector and art sponsor. Because of many history factors, there is a little of writing about his life. From Ancient Wares Collecte at Qingyi Pavilion written by Zhang Tingji and sponsored by Xu Xiaoxia, the paper displays his life as a scholar and a merchant.
