Far East, China, Longquan, Song Dynasty, ca. 1127-1279 CE. A sizeable bowl with a lovely sky blue glaze over its smooth surface. The foot rim is adorned with a brown linear pattern resembling the rings of a tree trunk. Glaze has descended from the top rim producing a rather pleasing feathery pattern. The rest of the piece is covered with a stunning azure blue color embellished with some crackling. Longquan celadon ceramics are known for their varying shades of either olive green, blue green, or blue as we see in this example. Size: 8.5" W x 4" H (21.6 cm x 10.2 cm)
Provenance: Ex-Paul and Louise Bernheimer, Cambridge, MA and Laguna Woods, CA, acquired before 1980.
