Of globular body rising from a countersunk base to a short waisted neck and flaring mouth-rim, the exterior freely decorated in dark brown slip and highlighted with incisions with two large peony blooms wreathed by slender leaves, each blossom with a butterfly fluttering nearby, all against a creamy-white ground, the unglazed footring fired to a light buff-orange tone, 8 inch high. Provenance:?From the estate of Mrs. Mamie Howe, Long Island, New York, who worked for Parke Bernet Galleries in Hong Kong in the 1960's
