Lot 207: A CHINESE LONGQUAN CELADON LOBED BOWL.
0 views
A Chinese celadon-glazed stoneware tea bowl of foliate form, attributed to the Longquan kilns of Zhejiang province. The vessel is designed with a deep conical body tapering to a small, slightly flared circular foot. The rim is divided into five distinct lobes by small, neatly cut V-shaped notches. The bowl is covered in a thick, even, and opaque pale sea-green celadon glaze with a soft, satin-like lustre. This profile and glaze quality are consistent with examples produced during the Southern Song (1127–1279) or Yuan (1271–1368) dynasties, specifically resembling the celebrated Bakohan tea bowl.
