A Chinese Celadon-Glazed Porcelain Bowl with Dragon Motif.
This Chinese porcelain bowl features a soft celadon glaze and is intricately molded with a pair of sinuous five-clawed dragons in pursuit of flaming pearls, set amidst stylised cloud scrolls. The dragons are rendered in low relief, their scales and limbs emerging subtly from the surface beneath the lustrous translucent glaze. The foot is neatly finished, and the recessed base bears a six-character underglaze blue mark, possibly indicating the period or origin of the piece.
H: Approximately 7.5cm
D: Approximately 15.5cm
