Hi all - 

Attached images/provenance details on a small Song dynasty Longquan lotus bowl recently acquired, H. 6.2cm, D. 6.9/6 cm ...

It has impressed lotus petal design to the exterior and is covered in a blueish-green glaze, images 5/6/7 taken in natural light give the best tonal impression, which is enthused with broad crackles ...

Some condition issues: two small mouthrim cracks that have been professionally restored, original firing fault to footrim, some kiln adhesions/glaze pits to central interior and slight warped ... 

However it has great provenance, original been in the collection of Dr/Mr Henry G de Laszlo, a British-Hungarian collector and exhibited, No 78, at the Oriental Ceramic Society Celadon Exhibition in 1947. Then by direct family decent until recently sold, Lot 219, at Doyles New York, 15 March 2021 ... 

Song lotus bowls of this type were produced in large numbers of several differing sizes, this been the smallest, and were thought to have been used together with a lid and saucer. For comparison, final two images of a larger example in the National Palace Museum, Taipei ...

So not the best example of type, but a lovely piece when held, which ‘feels’ beautiful in the hand! ...

I would like to express my warmest thanks to Justin@jg1133 for all his help and time given whilst discussing this piece ... 

Stuart

Stuart,

Congratulations on a fine acquisition!

I’ve been inspired by your (and Williams) vast knowledge of these early wares.

Time for me to hit the books and deepen my knowledge as I continue my search for lost artifacts!

Tim

@ming1449 I am so glad this arrived to you safe! I was so nervous with the custom box and everything else. It is such a nice little piece and really gives you a great feel for these types of pieces. The provenance was so great - funny story that when I purchased this at Doyle's in NYC I popped down the street to a long established bookstore called Argosy and couldn't believe my eyes when I found an original copy of the OCS catalogue that the work was in! Made for such a great package.

It could not have gone to a better home Stuart - thank you so much for sharing it with everyone!

All the best,

Justin

The art of calligraphy - and for the ancient Chinese it certainly was an art - aimed to demonstrate superior control and skill using brush and ink.
