About this Item
A pair of Chinese blue and white porcelain rice bowls on rosewood stands, Kangxi period, 1662-1722
each height: 7cm; diameter: 16,5cm
Notes
Decorated in underglaze cobalt blue with dense scrolling peonies and stylised foliage, interwoven with cloud scrolls. Central roundels of flowering stems, framed by diaper and foliate borders. Such floral designs are typical of Kangxi-period Jingdezhen porcelain. The depth of cobalt tone and complexity of the composition are characteristic of late 17th- to early 18th-century blue and white wares.
