Lot Details
Description
Japanese wood box (3)
Diameter 5 in., 12.7 cm
The present bowl is notable for its rich red glaze and attractive conical form, which makes this bowl more elegant than the typical, more rustic tea bowls from the Jian kilns with more rounded sides and a wider foot. Another Southern Song Jianyao persimmon-glazed bowl is illustrated in Li Zhiyan and Simon Kwan, Song Ceramics, Hong Kong, 2012, pl. 214.
