Pair of Chinese Qing Dynasty Period, YongZheng yellow monochrome porcelain bowls. The porcelain potted with a shallow body, of a shallow vessel, broad wide cavetto, with a straight opening lip, raised on a short round base and slightly concave footing, with flori petals on the lower base. All reserved hand painted ornamentations are rendered masterfully covered in an even coat of a lemon yellow glaze which terminates at the base to reveal the pure white under glaze. Meaning the "yellow family". This is a variant of the famille verte enamel palette in which the ground is covered with yellow enamel. The yellow glaze creates a mottled effect around the rim which is likened unto the blushing of human skin. The foot rim reveals the cut edges during the making process, and the receded central interior base left white under glaze. This inadvertently gave texture, energy, and shading to the design. The glaze is seamless and gives off a beautiful luster, with the colors maintaining excellent vibrancy and displays a subtle sheen as the light ricochets across the finely glazed exterior. The clay is very fine, with a brilliant glaze finish that was applied by a meticulous, the shape is uniformly proportioned.
Over all in EXCELLENT condition.
