Description

A qingbai porcelain bowl of deep conical shape, the thinly potted, steeply curved sides rising from a high foot and terminating in a circular rim. The interior is delicately carved with a design of scrolling floral sprays.

The bowl is covered in a translucent glaze of pale blue hue, leaving only the recessed based unglazed, showing the fine-grained white porcelain body.
